    I love all the sarcasm. Where are all the people who demanded a red light? It was everybody’s fault but the drivers, hence the suggestion of speed bumps.
    a Neighbor has is right.

    I am about to believe that intersection is cursed. I have never witnessed any other intersection in Escambia county that has had so many accidents as this one has. It really makes no sense. Put speed breakers on 97, then, maybe…

    It’s the people making U turns from south 29 into Tom Thunmb Cumberland in front of traffic turning south from hwy 97. I’ve slammed on brakes many times to stop hitting people, coming inches away. Standard occurrence!

    Hey Donnie, let’s take all the traffic lights away and sooner or later we’d be rid of all the stupid drivers not paying attention, just by attrition. Finally we would just have safe, mindful drivers that stick to a posted speed limit and stop at all crossroads. Duh. I think we’d still breed idiots and I think traffic lights still help. Just sayin…

    You know what we need there ? We need a traffic light there. Having a traffic light would have prevented this. These accidents have nothing to do with driver error , and could all be prevented if we just had more red lights

    I thought there a light put there to prevent these accidents? I guess it didn’t help.
