Driver inattention is biggest factor in high incidence of fatalities

Thinks it's time action taken to improve notifications, impose lower speed limits, and do something about Columbia's "Downtown Daytona Raceway with Crosswalks" - and asks, "How many more people must be maimed and die before we demand that those we have elected to offices which are responsible for public safety, at the very least, try???
Comments re article 57088 Thinks biggest factor in fatalities is driver inattention by Maury Lewis.

By Billy Joe Fudge
Maury, I believe has hit the nail on the head about driver inattention. I also believe there is merit to Ed's comments about some common sense things we as a community can petition our city, county and state leaders to do.
  • Almost all 55 mph traffic signals that are at the bottom of a hill or carry very high traffic volumes have caution signals that turn on prior to the light going red to grab the attention of and alert drivers to the upcoming red signal. I see them on high volume roads such as East 80 in Somerset, 127 in the Lawrenceburg/Frankfort/Harrodsburg area, Old Lebanon Road/North Bypass intersection near Taylor County Hospital, 111 intersections in the Livingston/Cookeville/Sparta area, etc.
  • Make sure speed limits are adequately posted.
  • Lower speed limits from 55 to 45 for a sufficient distance near this light and other dangerous intersections on the bypass.
  • Enforce the speed limits. We have one of the best city police departments, sheriff's departments and state police forces in the country. Shouldn't we ask that they calm down the traffic flow in and around town by enforcing the existing speed limits?
I really hate to be continually harping about this and our "Downtown Daytona Raceway with Crosswalks" situation but how many more people must be maimed and die before we demand that those we have elected to offices which are responsible for public safety, at the very least, try??? - BILLY JOE FUDGE

Perhaps a note can be added for the beloved bell-ringer

Joe Taylor, Sr. - He was as much a part of the school building as the tall windows or the oiled wooden floors. - LAVERNE WOODY JANKOWSKI

By Laverne Woody Jankowski

Boy! Ann Sutton's comments about Joe Taylor and the old school bell really hit a note of nostalgia for me.

I can almost hear the conversation:
MAMA: Hurry, you're going to be late for school!

ME: But the bell hasn't rung yet.
Living right across the street from the school building, we almost never left the house until the bell started ringing. I think the pitch and tone of that bell is etched in my brain.

Martha Berry: Agrees 100% with Joyce Coomer on cell phones

Martha Berry writes:
Per Joyce Coomer's comment about cell phone being included in the accident reports, I agree 100%. Another area that is neglected is whether turn signals are used when making a turn. Drivers are fined for not using seat belts but the illegal non-use of turn signals is ignored. It should be made more of a prioritty than seat belts. Both are mandatory by law. - Martha Berry

Thinks biggest factor in fatalities is driver inattention

Comments re article 57077 Peggy Fudge comments on another deadly accident

By Maury E. Lewis

If I read the report correctly it said that the driver ran a red light.

It had nothing to do with the way the road was built; it has to do with the attention people are paying to things while they are driving, or not paying attention to things while they are driving.

Peggy Fudge comments on another deadly accident

Deadly Bypass. We must do something, writer says

By Peggy Fudge
Commentary

Another deadly accident on the by-pass.

I am wondering-
Did the persons who planned this road evaluate its safety?
Did they expect fatalities at these high speed intersections?
How do the statistics on our by-pass compare to similar towns with a new by-pass?
How many fatal car crashes occured within the city limits before the construction of the by-pass?
What can we do to make this road safe?
We must do something.

My heart goes out to the family of the woman who lost her life.

I pray that someone will find some way assure that it never happens again. - PEGGY FUDGE
