We live in an HOA-governed community in Central Florida. Our kids play in an alley just cross the road from us with a bunch of other kids from the immediate area. Streets are marked 25mph and everyone knows this community is rife with children. We've still had 2 or 3 near misses in the past 3 years and that's just including the kids within 1 square block from here. It gives me anxiety just thinking about it, but we do our best to warn them of the dangers; get them looking both ways; and put out "Kids at Play" signs to warn drivers.
- bongodongobob 3y agoI think those signs are hilariously ineffective. "Don't run over kids." Oh shit I hadn't been watching for pedestrians until now! They don't do anything, it just increases alert fatigue.
- inkcapmushroom 3y agoI disagree, I do appreciate these signs and do try to pay more attention to blind spots in those areas.
