Before they paved it you couldn’t drive fast there
They try to beat the yellow light.
Before everyone blames the city, drivers etc, any chance the victim was intoxicated?
A high percentage of all these pedestrian deaths happen on weekends late at night, when drivers have a hard time seeing staggering drunks stumbling along busy, winding Rt.88
Ask the EMS, they need to clean up the aftermath every weekend.
Reading headline:
Man struck by vehicle and then killed. Who killed him and why? Was he in such bad condition that someone conducted a mercy killing?

My answer is this: We do not need more of you…what we need is for residents of this town to pay attention when and where they walk. You can’t put a traffic light at every intersection, its rediculous..Grow up and take some responsibility..it didn’t happen at an intersection it happened between them…but people don’t pay attention when they walk, so why bother with them..
To genius: what does it have to do with the paved road?

A human being is dead. Show some respect. Maybe a bit of empathy.
High-chair detectives, you’re fired.
