bad accident. don’t know the circumstances, but i have seen folks pull out from shady lane and have vehicles coming in from 4A west almost run all over them due to running far above the posted speed. i knew it would happen some day. slow down, please.
R.I.P. I only knew you a couple of years but I considered you to be a true friend. You will be missed.
So sorry for your loss. I hate to see yet another accident on this road, although I do not know the exact reasons this occurred, please let this call attention to this stretch of road coming into Century. It is residential plus many pedestrians walk through there. Speed bumps begin and the sharp turn is ahead. Many have run up the embankment over the years. The speed limit right there eastbound is posted at 15 MPH. and 15 MPH westbound at the curve. Pease ease off and show some respect for those of us who live and walk there and for this young man’s life, rest in peace.
RIP buddy Class of 2004 will miss you, you were with us from the start.
