I just want to let her family and friends know I remembered
I thunk they really should add a traffic light there yea it might cause a back up a little but but it would be alot safer I cant tell you the amount of times I have personally almost gotten hit at that intersection
How many accidents have to happen there before #MDOT does something? Give me a specific number. Rumble strips were placed on Mechanicsville Road – wow, that really helped. When these people hire personal injury lawyers, make sure the state of Maryland is sued as well for willful negligence and disregard of life.
