New sheriff. I think we need to demand safer roads from morons driving like maniacs, swooping thru traffic circles, weaving in and out of traffic, weaving thru crosswalks to miss pedestrians, grossly exceeding the speed limits, running stop signs like they are not even there.

And then there is the "contractor" trucks with trailers driving like maniacs. Grass guys?
Most of these - don't even have insurance.
And why? Because they see us doing it.
I tend to agree with that post. There is a speeding problem where there does NOT need to be one. The streets are crowded in the winter season, so people should SLOW DOWN and drive DEFENSIVELY.
