Description

On almost a daily basis, traffic is continually, and often more than once in a single timeframe, violating traffic law as it pertains to school buses and child safety along Sprinkle Rd between Centre and Tiffany. I have two children in elementary that currently ride the public school buses. When the bus stops at my home on Sprinkle Rd. in the morning (approximately 8:05-ish) and especially in the afternoon (approximately 4:15-ish), oncoming traffic is blatantly ignoring the bus signals and refusing to stop. There have even been numerous instances where traffic behind the bus on the same side of the road, after coming to a stop no less, has sped around the bus, after it has activated it's red lights, not wanting to have to wait. If this were only a once in a great while occurance, I wouldn't bat an eye. Unfortunately, this is a multiple times a week occurance, almost to an everyday occurance, and places my children's safety at risk.

There are numerous locations where an officer could sit and watch, and I would recommend sitting in a location that helps obstruct or block view of the officers cruiser, to which there are many. Please help remedy this. It really makes me nervous for my children, especially considering this is a 50 mph road and both stops during the day are during higher traffic volumes! Your attention is appreciated!
