Dear Editor:

Summerland Speedway!

That is how it feels on our stretch of Victoria Road South, which happens to be a residential neighbourhood. Kids, pets, elderly and handicapped residents beware as rushing vehicles are not inclined to stop at unlit pedestrian crosswalks!

READ ALSO: Summerland intersection had 139 crashes in five years

The races begin at 10 p.m. when two vehicles driving side by side have been seen to race down this straight stretch of road, unhindered by police, stop signs or speed bumps.

What will it take to slow down the traffic?

A death, or a collision when a resident tries to pull out of their driveway?

Please slow down so that we can enjoy living in our neighbourhood, and fix your noisy exhaust systems.

Nancy Fontaine

Summerland
