I read Bob Carmichael’s letter about the death of his beloved puppy due to speeders on Fernhill Drive. My neighbors and I on Broad Beach Road are going to meet with Bob. We have a horrendous speedway here – probably worse than Fernhill because Broad Beach Road runs parallel to Pacific Coast Highway and drivers tend not to slow down when they exit PCH and enter Broad Beach Road. We have the added hazard of entrances for Public Beach Access. Folks are getting in and out of their cars, unloading kayaks and surfboards, changing clothes, while drivers are whizzing by at 55 mph.
Perhaps by banding together we neighbors can get better solutions for both Fernhill and Broad Beach before anyone else – puppy or person – gets killed.
