Car did not stop when a school bus was stopped
Car did not stop when a school bus was stopped
Noticed the installation of speed monitoring bands the other day at Morningside and Sheffield. Can you explain the purpose? Curious as recent traffic calming was installed so not sure if it is monitoring for improvements, considering some alterations, or a different purpose. Thank you. Greenway improvements have been helpful in whole.
When I am southbound on S. Williamsburg Drive, next to Arby's at 2813 E. 3rd Street, and am trying to turn onto 3rd Street, it is hard to see clearly to my left for oncoming traffic. There are bushes and yard debris piled onto the raised area next to 3rd street that forces me to pull dangerously far onto 3rd street to be sure no traffic is coming. Can you clean up that sight line? If so, thank you SO much! I am there often as are more and more drivers.
Broken glass all over sidewalk
The street light is malfunctioning. It is a free color and doesn’t provide the light necessary to illuminate the intersection, leaving it extremely dark.
117 S. Heritage Rd. A friend visited this morning. I stood by my door to see her back up from my driveway, two cars approached. Those two expected she surely will yell, they just keep going, and my poor friend who can’t see through the vehicle parked on the street, just keep backing. I was holding my breath, luckily those two drivers kindly stopped and let her go first. Oh, my goodness, thanks God again. When the inspector was here, I almost offered her to sit in my 2001 Toyota Camry to take a picture. I can see everything clearly when I stand by my driveway, but when I sit in that low sit, I can’t see anything in the back of neighbor’s vehicle. Sooner or later there ought to be an accident. I just wonder who’s responsibility going to be? Why is so hard to deal with this problem? Also I noticed more cars parked along the street. We are not too far from IU, and have two bus routes to IU also. It’s closer to park here than Stadium, besides it’s free. Oh, my!
I live in 117 S.Heritage Rd. Bloomington. Thanks for the help, the blind spot cleared for 2 days. Now there’s another vehicle park at that spot. My friend passed by Heritage most of the time because the construction on Smith Rd. She felt so sorry for because Heritage Rd. Is such a mass. Actually I do enjoy how people react to that one lane place, they just patiently slow down or even stop to wait for people on the other side to pass. I really respect those people, that’s what make American so special. On the other hand, there’s one one person hold on his privilege “legal parking on the public street”, not even trying to make an small effect to make all the rest a safe street to drive. How selfish and not considerate. What a shame!
I live at 117 S. Heritage Rd. Now think it back, what a horrible experience. According to the rules, the one back up from their driveway supposed to yell to the on going traffic. That’s why those cars right in my back. They didn’t know I can’t see them, and they feel it’s their right to go forward. Oh, my goodness, the loud breaking car really saved my live. Everyone knows there’s blind spot between two driving vehicles, now I realized there’s blind spot when vehicles legally parked on the public street. I do need thanks God to saved my life, and Hope this horrible experience will let people rethink about the legal parking rules to prevent unnecessary damages in the future.
117 S Heritage Rd again. The mystery solved. This afternoon a friend visited, I was trining to guide him out of my driveway by standing at the edge. No car in sight, I signed him come out, suddenly there’s a car approaching from back of the parking vehicle, no wonder it comes so quickly. People in the car stop behind the vehicle to yell, wait for their turn. I live in my house since 1990. The red BMW and other things never be moved for more than 10 years. It’s not park there, it’s storages there.
I live on S. Heritage Rd, Bloomington. My neighbor at 200 prefer to park his vehicles on the street which creates a blind angle for me to see the car turn in from 3rd street. I am not sure if people turn in from 3rd can see me back up clearly. For several times, once I back into the middle of the road, there’s a car right behind me. It’s unimaginable. What is happening? I wonder anything can be done to solve this dangerous situation?
