St. Louis Alderman: Speeding and reckless driving is an epidemic, the city needs to do something about it | KSDK.com
Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:
A 20 year-old man is in critical-unstable condition following a violent crash Tuesday morning near the intersection of Natural Bridge and Shreve in St. Louis.
The Nissan sedan the man was driving was ripped in half when police say a driver in a black sedan ran a red light at the intersection and slammed into the victim’s car. Police say the driver of the second car was speeding and then ran away from the scene following the crash.
Crashes like this are a big reason why a St. Louis Alderman is calling for changes to city streets.
Alderman Jeffrey Boyd of the city’s 22nd ward says St. Louis drivers regularly speed, drive recklessly and ignore traffic lights and stop signs. Now he’s planning to do something about it.
