For many years the Oak Park community requested that the city install traffic signals at the intersections of Pirotte Dr. and 54th St. and at Grape St./Haniman Dr. and 54th St. We were often assured that they were on the list, but always with the aside that we shouldn?’t expect much until if or when someone dies. After much work by a member of this community and an extremely serious accident involving a police officer the signal at Pirotte and 54th St. was finally installed. The requests for Grape St./Haniman Dr. still got the ?“it?’s on the list but?…?” routine. Well, after numerous requests for action, countless accidents (up to 5 in one day), 10?’s of thousands of dollars in damage and injury claims paid out, the inevitable finally happened. Early on the morning of Sunday June 26 someone died in a bloody, brain splattering hit and run ?“accident?”. The questions start to arise. Where on the list is that signal now? How many more must die? City of San Diego, where is our signal?
Another hit and run just after New Years. This time a little girl was seriously injured. Only this time, with the help of some citizens, the police caught this one. How many more City?
