People are driving like fucking maniacs on the stroad near me, literally 70+ miles per hour on a 40mph road just inches away from sidewalks where school kids walk every day. (and yes, the school kids have to cross that street, and yes they have been getting killed by maniac drivers). My neighbor across the street had some fucking truck jump the curb and crash into the side of their house (fortunately little damage, but wtf). It's crazy to me that my neighbors are so anxious and gossipy about every little crime happening in town, but are just completely oblivious to the danger of these gigantic fucking SUVs being piloted death-racer style through the places they're trying to walk. I can't fully wrap my head around why it's happening, but it's become more dangerous than ever to just exist as a pedestrian near roads.
