A couple months ago a young lady was killed driving south on Buena Vista when she ran into the roundabout at Bailey Trail.

A few weeks ago a young man on a motorcycle was killed at the intersection of Buena Vista and 466A.

Yesterday there was an accident at that same intersection and we saw two people being carried away on stretchers.

Even a "four lane highway (with two lanes in each direction and a median in between)" is not safe when people are careless.
