Got the clip! Fox5 San Diego reports on new speed humps in North Park May 25th, 2023 youtu.be/Z7LrFE6lIlI via @YouTube

@JustinSchiffer6 @CMWhitburnD3 Raised crosswalks would make a huge improvement and are on the wish list. Also looking at bulb outs and painted intersection.

@altadena_guy @CMWhitburnD3 What are you looking to do there? Raised crosswalks?

Local business owners (Grand Ole BBQ, Santos Coffee, Thorn Brewing, Headbang Salon) met with ⁦@CMWhitburnD3⁩ Whitburn to discuss pedestrian safety improvements at known dangerous intersection 32nd and Thorn. Love Whitburn’s personal commitment to safe streets!

@CMWhitburnD3 Thank you for your continued support for our community! We appreciate your commitment to much needed safety improvements!

Thank you to the North Park residents and business owners for organizing a great discussion on traffic calming measures on 32nd Street and Thorn Street. Your insights are greatly appreciated as we work to address traffic related concerns in District 3 and across the city.

@Fumo_Foamer_SD @CMWhitburnD3 Best BBQ west of the Mississippi, some say

@altadena_guy @CMWhitburnD3 Really good bbq there, need to go to altadena again

@jlatchhh @ob_cycler @CMWhitburnD3 @MayorToddGloria Good idea, but won’t work. SDPD has already told us they are understaffed and can’t do traffic enforcement. Camera enforcement would work but there’s no political will to impede drivers.

@altadena_guy @ob_cycler @CMWhitburnD3 @MayorToddGloria Report it on get it done!!!

They will never have enough staff to prioritize traffic enforcement. That is why we need automated enforcement. @CMWhitburnD3 @MayorToddGloria

@ob_cycler @jsnod I'm on Bluesky now! Thanks for the reminder.

@altadena_guy @jsnod The community is even better on there, the only problem is the politicians aren't on there yet so for now we can't use it to petition them directly.

Check out the drivers blowing the stop signs in one 10 min span yesterday afternoon. It's like this all day, every day. This is a 4-way stop in the middle of a residential area with kids everywhere. 33rd & Redwood. @SanDiegoPD

@Bee_Bailey @SanDiegoPD Entitlement. Lack of traffic enforcement. No infrastructure stopping them. Car brained behavior.

@AgentBaz @SanDiegoPD We have asked and asked for enforcement. Not enough SDPD officers for traffic enforcement, we've been told. This is our reality.

@altadena_guy @SanDiegoPD I could definitely see the footage, thank you for answering the question about the frequency of cyclists / children in the area, I would agree that makes enforcement here even more important to preserve lives.👍✅

@AgentBaz @SanDiegoPD x.com/altadena_guy/s…

@altadena_guy @SanDiegoPD How many kids ride bikes over there? That is scary how you showed the picture of the family cycling right after the drivers went through the stop sign.

@ob_cycler @SanDiegoPD Me too. I'm honestly astonished at how little regard drivers have for the safety of kids. The entitlement they feel to put everyone at risk so they can get somewhere a *little faster* is appalling.

@altadena_guy @SanDiegoPD I hate it.

@corpusnovus @SanDiegoPD @StephenWhitburn The problem isn't budget, it's headcount. SDPD is understaffed, so they don't have resources for traffic enforcement. One officer told me straight up never to expect a patrol car in our area, and he was right.

@altadena_guy @SanDiegoPD @StephenWhitburn Is this true @Sandiegopd? Half a billion dollar budget and we can’t afford a single motorcycle cop to patrol a known violation zone and likely prevent a horrible tragedy?

@corpusnovus @SanDiegoPD @StephenWhitburn We’ve asked, but @SanDiegoPD is under resourced and can’t do traffic enforcement. Seems word is out. I’m worried it’s just a matter of time before a kid gets ran over.

@altadena_guy @SanDiegoPD This is my neighborhood and I’ll second this. This intersection is within blocks of 2 schools. @SanDiegoPD @StephenWhitburn Let’s see some enforcement here.

I can't book a SAN -> LAX trip on Amtrak. Is the Pacific Surfliner not running again or is this just a website issue?

I honestly think it would be safer if every single stop sign in the city was removed, and drivers were forced to approach each intersection with a little fear. Not fear for others, of course, but fear that they might hurt their car.

Glanced out the window as a speeding driver completely blew the 4-way stop at 33rd and Redwood. Kid on bike was a few seconds away from being hit. His mom was completely shaken, and I came out and told her ppl do this all day, every day, and to be extra careful.
