Cars very often don't stop for pedestrians crossing Palisade at this crossing on Booraem Ave. Yesterday, 6/29 I stopped before the crossing to let a couple with a baby stroller to cross. They waited for the coming traffic to stop which tool awhile. When they started crossing they were almost hit but a car that came behind me on the right. Some drivers are just reckless. This guy then yelled at this couple for crossing Palisade. Can we have more police presence here to calm these type of drivers please? Maybe blinking light signs here would help? Thank you.

Came to talk about 5 kids and 4 adults almost getting run over at this intersection today. I was in a bright yellow coat holding a toddler with another entire family behind me waving my arms aggressively at the oncoming drivers and probably 10 cars sped by me. During a gap in the traffic I went out into the crosswalk and out my hand up like a crossing guard at the car that was probably 100 feet away and he actually SPED UP and swerved into the middle line to get around me. Even as I was screaming at the top of my lungs.
Both families were extremely shaken. I could not have been more visible (remember- bright yellow coat, waving my arms, yelling and making eye contact) but we still almost all got mowed down by speeding cars.
This intersection is dangerous. Please update us on the study that got requested over six months ago?
