    Tol much “activity” going on in that particular area at all times of the day/night. A few years back I was on my way fishing and there was a man laying in the road arguing with a woman. They were both out of it. It right close to the IHOP. I saw her in the lights but wouldn’t have seen him until it was too late. The Police need to crack down on that area.

    John, Its not a crosswalk problem it’s a behavior problem.

    The truth is, an adult can’t cross the road at midnight.

    Too many lessons are learned too late.

    It’s a shame.

    I hate to say this but I’m not surprised. It’s too hard to find the nearest crosswalk and press the metal button on the post to safely cross. This is a common occurrence around Pensacola. Also wear something where people can see you, if you are going to be brave enough to walk down our streets.
