There are two 4-way stop signs on Allendale Drive in Sherwood Oaks Subdivision. Cars, trucks, buses and motorcycles rarely come to a complete stop. A rolling stop is common but what I have noticed is also alarmingly common is vehicles that don’t even slow down. They just blow right through it. SO subdivision is a very popular neighborhood for people walking, jogging and biking. I realize the police are busy with more serious issues but it sure would be nice to occasionally have some traffic enforcement on this matter before someone gets hurt or killed.
White BMW vehicle accelerated through the stop sign and accelerated again at a high speed west on Allendale causing a bike to veer off the road. This vehicle endangered the bicyclist, ignored the stop sign, and has on multiple occasions done this.
The street light on this corner (Dunstan and Allendale) is not working.
Bulb out
Bus stop with sidewalk not shoveled.
School bus stop is blocked by Mountain of snow and water
The raised pedestrian crossings on Allen are almost invisible when driving east. Often see traffic hitting them way too fast which could cause them to lose control. Suggest painting them a brighter color.
Stop sign westbound on W. Allen St. is covered by trees, and I've seen 3 vehicles in the past week not stop, almost causing me to get in an accident.
The streets and sidewalks are very dark when the sun goes down. I am requesting street lamps are put in place to protect those walking home from campus or the bars. As the sun sets earlier, many students are leaving class or the library after dark. I also almost hit someone driving home who was crossing the street simply because I could not see them. I believe rates of reported instances would decrease simply due to being aware of our surrounding (people).
