    @ century resident no crosswalk is going to help when people just walk or ride something whether it be a bicycle or scooter on out in front of people. Those that do that expect people to stop for them.

    What does somebody riding their bicycle have to do with crosswalks?

    @century resident … lol. If signs worked, there’d be no traffic accidents. Signs don’t magically make stupid people better drivers or cyclists.

    This is like the 4th person that has been struck by a vehicle in the past few years. They really need to put cross walks in century because they do have only one cross walk and it’s at the marathon convenience store and it doesn’t work most of the time, they should have one at the court house and the park and all stores, they would stop so many people fron getting injured or killed because this one could have been fatal.
