Just stop

A neighbor told me that the other day she saw a driver running the stop sign on northbound Newark Road at Route 842 in West Marlborough -- and not just rolling through, but not even braking one bit. Another woman who lives in London Grove village said motorists regularly ignore the stop signs there, too.
A reminder of what can happen when you blow through a stop sign: a few weeks ago, two Lancaster County brothers ran the stop sign on Street Road at Route 472 in Lower Oxford. Their car was hit by a milk truck and they were killed instantly. I passed the site the other day, and there's a memorial, with flowers and a portrait of both of the young men.
