1131 4th Street North Saint Petersburg Florida -
Uptown
There was an accident this morning at 4th N and 12th. A car pulled out into 4th street into the path of a Lexus SUV - seen in the picture. According to what I heard, both drivers noted that the visibility at the intersection was blocked a great deal by the parking very close to the corner. Please take action to make this intersection safer. Perhaps remove the space near the corner?
The driver that pulled into the traffic on 4th should have been more careful, but the visibility had to be a big factor.
There was a ticket earlier but it was wrongly archived and marked erroneously as a duplicate of a ticket submitted about a tree causing an accident on 4th. This is NOT the same issue and should be addressed properly. The driver was ok, but this could have been fatal and the City of St Pete really needs to take action on this. That's what this forum is for and I'm sad to see some issues like the original ticket swept under the rug, so to speak.
