Speed Limits and Stop Signs

Posted in: Big Bear Farms
Drive 25

Someone else made the point that if you are driving 25 you can pretty much stop to avoid. I believe this is true.

Wrong !!! I'm in law enforcement and you can't beleive how many kids get hit by drivers that were going the 25 mph speed limit. When a kid jumps out from behind a parked car, you haven't got a chance. There are not many parked cars here in BBF, but there are a few. The street is not a playground. It's YOUR job as a parent, to protect them, you can't control how fast some jerk drives through our neighborhood.
lawman do your job

So where are you lawmen to stop the speeders?
Kids in the Street

Sorry, but the lawmen do a fine job. He is correct, it is almost impossible at 25 mph to stop when a 2 year old jumps in the street chasing a ball. People should not have to turn into their cul-de-sac and have to avoid 10 5 and unders playing in the street. That's why we have backyards. And the worst is, I have had to stop short for a 3 year old, heart hammering and his mother is nowhere in sight......all I am saying is, watch your kids and don't blame the drivers.
