Our neighborhood on Rosecrans Avenue has been a witness to numerous accidents, largely due to speed racing or reckless driving. As residents, we have experienced the trauma and frustration of seeing our vehicles damaged multiple times over the years. More than just property damage, the absence of essential road safety measures has led to tragic consequences.

The situation on Rosecrans is dire. Our streets should be places of safety and peace, not a constant threat to our well-being. The risk is not just to our cars but also to our homes and, most importantly, our families. We live in anxiety, constantly worrying about the next potential disaster that reckless driving might cause.

Implementing speed bumps and additional stop signs is a straightforward and effective solution. These traffic calming measures have proven to significantly reduce vehicular speed and prevent accidents in neighborhoods across the nation. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, strategically placed speed bumps can lead to a 40% reduction in the number and severity of accidents. Moreover, stop signs at critical junctions serve to break the flow of speeding vehicles, ensuring a more cautious approach to neighborhoods.

Our community deserves to feel safe walking on the sidewalks, crossing the streets, and even sitting in our homes. With the implementation of these road safety measures, we can transform Rosecrans Avenue from a perilous racetrack into a secure residential street.
