[quote=Anonymous]If this is a "hit the gas instead of the break" situation, a crossing guard would not have prevented it. The adult victim could have been the crossing guard for all we know. My kid goes to high school less than two miles away from this elementary school and kids need to cross a 4 lane divided road. There are guards in the morning (who do a fantastic job)but they leave almost immediately after school starts so if kids are a little bit late they are SOL. This is a problem for kids who take WMATA buses to school because they aren't always on time. I'm guessing that filling these positions isn't easy and that they need to do some risk assessment and determine which schools need a limited number of guards the most. This is driver education issue. [/quote]
