LETTER: Cross at your peril

Dear Editor : Somebody is going to die on St. Georges Avenue. With traffic using this vertical speedway as an alternate to Lonsdale Avenue, everyone is at risk.

Dear Editor:

Somebody is going to die on St. Georges Avenue. With traffic using this vertical speedway as an alternate to Lonsdale Avenue, everyone is at risk. Cars don’t stop for pedestrians (except for Keith Road and beyond where there are stop signs and crosswalks) and some pedestrians don’t watch for cars. Crossing or turning onto lower St. Georges is another game of chance as you inch forward, hoping to see past parked vehicles. Some of these are trucks – too big to see over, too long to see around. Somebody is going to die on St. Georges ... and it just might be me.
