Ava a young girl who was loved by many tragically passed due to a very preventable issue everyone should be aware of. 

Highway 22 has an exit to a left and right turn leading to highway 90, a very well known turn for many young students and parents. Highway 90 is also the main entry to a well known high school called Atlantic Collegiate Academy. Ava was a student at ACA and as usual she would take a left hand turn onto 90 to get to school. However, she was t-boned one morning. She has since passed away due to this accident,  leaving many who knew this sweet girl distraught. 

My brother attends ACA and is a very new driver like many of the students there. He has to make this dangerous turn to get to school everyday and I would never want anything like this accident to happen to him. For many parents this is also a concern for their children.

Due to this a traffic light should most definitely be added to substitute the dangerous turn. It has already taken one innocent life and it should never happen again. 

A traffic light will not only keep all students safe from fatal crashes like this but it will also help parents or siblings have peace of mind knowing our new drivers will make it to school.

Help us honor Ava and make this much needed change!
