It is really hard to drive through there, especially when it's dark. There are so many blind spots: for pedestrians & drivers. I hope you have a great recovery, and I hope the police step in on game nights from now on.

Everyone knows that the sidewalks,steets, underpass and bridge,are packed with cars parked along the highways,illegal, when they have Games. People run across the Rt.60 Highway,in the underpass and over it,including the bridge back and forth, crossing on all corners where the stop light is, By Foot In Heavy Traffic it is VERY DANGEROUS FOR DRIVERS AND PEOPLE WALKING! When they have Car Washes on the lot of Tim Horten,these parents, childrens,and teens, walk out with signs, almost in front of moving cars ,blocking the view of drivers who are trying to watch the traffic and people while slowing down for the light or turning corners ,or switching lanes to turn in Heavy WORK TRAFFIC, it is Very Dangerous on Rt.60, and at all corners around the stop light! I would think the adults would know not to put the kids and teens where it is not safe because of HEAVY MOVING TRAFFIC AT ALL TIMES! Something needs to be done about these car washes before some one else gets hit!Has anyone noticed this!

My mother was killed by a hit and run driver that stopped for a few seconds and then left. The killer was the daughter of a well to do family in this community. My mother, a poor single mom. The killer was later arrested and found not guilty in an epitomy of kangaroo court. My mother, a pedestrian, was blamed for the "accident" because she had a had a few beers. Never was the killer, a known drug addict, ever tested for drugs or alcohol. Why am I telling you this? Because of the hell that my family went through losing our mother and the months of court and having to defend our mother. My youngest brother was only 12 and he lost his whole world. The killer and her family put us through hell. The killer approached my brother and introduced herself as the one who killed his mother and wanted to know if they were close. I pray that this young lady has a speedy recovery and thank God she was not killed. For the person who committed this crime, I hope real justice prevails.
