  1. Honestly RTC? Why do you place the Bus Stops in the very middle of a Block? The Death this morning in front of the Orleans on Trop? On TV3? It shows the Bus Stop in the middle of the Block! Where it should be placed near the Intersection where there is a CrossWalk with a Traffic Light! People getting off the Bus and wanting to go to the Orleans? It is just too tempting to take the shorter route into TRAFFIC! Shame on RTC! Move all Bus Stops near Intersections to decrease the number of Pedestrian Deaths! .....now....if you live under the 'Thumb' of a Homeowners Assoc - HOA ?

  2. Its time for Metro to start enforcing traffic violatons, no matter how small. There are too many motorist who are running red lights, failing to yield to pedestrians in the cross walk, speeding, rolling through stop signs and basically just driving recklessly. The only way to reduce and get motorists obeying traffic law is to stop, cite and fine. Motorists only understand one thing, money out of their pockets. I know most officers do not like to enforce traffic laws but there is no way motor officers can do it all. I see it everyday, and its dangerous for anyone on the road and now sidewalks. Lets start enforcing basic traffic laws and maybe motorists will get the message just by seeing more motorists pulled over.
