With an increasing number of traffic accidents happening in town, biking and pedestrian safety is on the brain these days for many Santa Monica residents.
At last week's Bike Committee meeting, Parks and Recreation Commission Vice-Chair Phil Brock and Commissioner Richard McKinnon led a discussion about how to reduce the number of accidents.
Also, Santa Monica Patch columnist Gary Kavanagh addressed the topic in his latest column, arguing that everyone needs to become better acquainted with the rules of the road.
In the wake of two fatal traffic accidents—one that claimed the life of a pedestrian in December and another that happened following a drag race eight days ago—what proposals do you have to help make the streets of Santa Monica safer? Share your thoughts in the comments box below.
