[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maury neighbor here.  I agree, it's not fair to just blame 'Maryland drivers' for this.  We've all got to get to work every day and I don't begrudge anyone for doing so.

The problem is a serious one, though.  It's really out of control and needs to be reigned in.  That's MPDC's responsibility, with appropriate direction from elected authority.  I hope we don't have to have a child killed before that happens.

If this little girl's injuries were accurately reported up thread, there's little question the driver who hit her was speeding. A broken pelvis is excruciatingly painful and usually occurs when a pedestrian is thrown way up in the air when hit.  It's the landing on the pavement that will break a pelvis and there's no way that would happen at the 15 m.p.h. speed limit around Maury.

Prayers for the child and her family.  We need to get this under control, now.  [/quote]

But what about at 25 mph? This accident may have happened outside of school zone hours. I actually think a stop sign there might make more sense since it will slow people down at all times rather than at just set times. The Maury playground is a hot spot on the weekends as well.[/quote]
