I'm furious with my neighbors who seem to think the streets in our
subdivision are for playing. Several women who have nothing better to do
petitioned the county to put speed bumps in to slow cars down, yet the
speed limit of 25 mph is still fast enough to kill or injure a child. When
the sun is low on the horizon at evening rush hour, it often blinds cars,
reducing their visibility. Why is it that some parents feel it is fine to
impose inconveniences on the whole of society to make up for their

laziness
in controlling their children? I teach my children to stay in the yard,

and
would never trust thier lives to some speed limit sign or speed bump. We
teach them that the road is for cars and the yard where cars can't go is
for playing.



You cannot ride a bicycle in the yard. My son is planning on riding his
bicycle with his Bubba (grandpa) in the street today. And I know that Bubba
will have his hawk eyes on to protect him from inattentive or speeding
drivers. It depends on the street and the neighborhood IMO.

regards,
Mandy
