No Passing in the Neighborhood

Can I add that many folks have also forgotten what the big red octogon that has the letters STOP on it means !!!! I constantly see peopl,e run the stop signs on Vestals Gap. I blow my horn and they look at me like I am crazy.

Does this qualify as a criminal offense ? If so, I would be glad to identify these drivers to the police. I was also under the impression that the police had to witness the offense. I have comtemplated on several occasions of taking a nice digital picture of the offenders.

All of these issues (speeding, passing, running stop signs) provides an unsafe enviroment for everyone - especially our children.

 

Reckless Driving = Class 1 Misdemeanor = Criminal offense. You can go to the Magistrate and fill out a complaint. The Magistrate will decide whether to issue the warrant.

A few years ago we were down in the gravel parking area by the Reservoir and a teenager in a Camaro drove down and decided to do donuts right next to our car. Kicked up a ton of gravel everywhere. We contacted the LCSO, they basically found the teenager and scared the you-know-what out of him so we decided not to take any action. We could have, though, through the Magistrate.

 

a school bus full of kids ran the stop sign at Vestals Gap yesterday- turned right in front me like it was no big deal. i should have turned around and followed him to get the plate number and rpt him. since there's no doubt he'll do it again- i will follow himnext time.

 

We're walkers and I could nail quite a few people going thru stop signs on a daily basis. It's one of my pet peeves. Not a very good example if you have kids in the car.

 

You know, I joked about the stop sign thingy b4, b/c I must admit going ~3-5 MPH thru them.
HOWEVER, I have seen so many folks buzzing thru at like 15-20 MPH, I would like to retract my previous flippant attitude!

 

+200 ... alot of foot traffic on that road means you go the speed limit..

 

and then tell us on this board to look there it keeps the moderators happy and we still get to find out who to look out for.

 

Exactly.....as long as the nice folks on this forum don't platewire me !!!

 

We figured whoever got nailed or whoever was the most painted would start at the bottom. Nowhere to go but up from there!!
