Amen. It's pretty sad. My mother still warns me about crossing Sunrise Highway *LOL* and I'm not eleven that's for sure!
At 7 or 8 years old, i got hit by a car while walking coming home from PS 165 crossing 73rd & 150st.
But I bounced real good. :-)
So they pulled all the "YIELD" signs and replaced with STOP signs = = = 3 Years later!
