A couple of nights ago, my husband and I were coming back from the store when we decided to go down by New Denmark Park. There is a nice new sidewalk there, yet we had to stop in the middle of the street because of people walking.

No reflective clothing, just non-intelligent people — they were adults, by the way, not kids — walking down the middle of the road when the sidewalk was just a few feet away.

All it takes is for one driver who is not paying attention to hit one of you and then you could end up in the hospital, or worse, the morgue. Pay attention and stay on the sidewalks!
