Rev. Pescosolido offers prayer for safer bypass, for Judge Stephens



2018-09-05 - South West Corner, Veterans Memoral Bypass & Burkesville Street/Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com.
Rev. Steve Pescosolido, pastor of Trinity United Methodist Church, asked for guidance for the gathering at the forum held beside the most dangerous intersection in Adair County, and to watch over Adair County Judge Executive Michael Lee Stephens, who was overcome by the heat and left the gathering he organized with the help of an assistant. In front are, from left, Tony Bragg, Magistrate Daryl Flatt, (District 2) Columbia Police Chief Jason Cross, Adair-Taylor Kentucky State Representative Bam Carney, (Rev. Pescosolido) and Adair County Circuit Court Clerk Dennis Loy. Judge Stephens was reported to have just needed to get out of the heat and is doing fine. The forum, thanks to knowledge of the history of the road from Columbia Fire Chief Mike Glasgow, Chief Cross, Daryl Flatt and others was one of the most effective yet. Rep. Carney said that the concerns will get action, saying that it's time good sense take precedent over being to analytical. - EW

Joyce Coomer: In defense of law enforcement

There are many other things they have to attend to during the run of a day and speeders, overall, aren't as urgent a problem as other things -- like illegal drugs. - Joyce M. Coomer

By Joyce M. Coomer

While law enforcement personnel in the county do need to be aware of speeders and stop and ticket people for speeding, they simply cannot spend all their time at one location. There are many other things they have to attend to during the run of a day and speeders, overall, aren't as urgent a problem as other things -- like illegal drugs.

Victoria Pike: Amen to Teresa Durbin's lower speed limit idea

Suggests 35mph from Cumberland Parkway interchange to Bypass & Burkesville interchange.

Victoria Pike writes:
AMEN. Finally somebody gets it. Ie been trying to get the speed limit lowered for months from the parkway to the city limits where it goes down. There is too much traffic in this area to be going 55 mph. Traffic surveys have shown people are gonna by the speed limit so no change. Another study showed there was not 100 cars per hour through this area. Hit another dead end. I support reducing the speed limit to 35 mph. I could care less what criteria has to be met. Use some common sense and reduce the speed limit. This is our community and I as a citizen demand a lowering of the new speed through my neighborhood before we lose another precious life. End of rant. - Victoria Pike

Comments re article 99341 Outrage at 2nd horrific crash in 5 days at Bypass Burkesville

By Vicki Miller

I know all these accidents are a tragedy but it really all comes down to human/mechanical error.

No amount of flashing lights, signs, rumble strips, round-abouts or any other device is going to stop an accident from happening if drivers don't pay attention to them.

Teresa Durbin: Speed limit needs to be reduced to 35mph

Teresa Durbin writes:
The solution is the speed. Everyone is racing to get through that light. The speed limit needs to be reduced to 35mph all the way to Walmart, with cameras at the intersection. A four way stop at that intersection with rumble strips, would also help. It is not a matter of visibility of the light it is a matter of speeders and reckless driving. Put these interventions in place and then enforce them, and we will see a drastic change at this intersection. - Teresa Durbin

Bryan Walker: Calls for more local patrolling for speeding

Bryan Walker writes:
Speeding on this bypass or any road within city limits should be policed by local law enforcement. For whatever reason, the state should not be the only ones patrolling this road or any other. I saw a Adair Sheriff's vehicle had someone pulled over just past the schools towards 55 today and was glad to see that.

More needs to be done. We can't even get folks to stop at the stop sign on the corner of Dillon and Greensburg Streets and this is a heavy pedestrian use street in the mornings and afternoons to our schools. Salaries can be made here just in the traffic fines. - Bryan Walker

Traffic safety in general: ban use of electronic communication device

By Joyce Coomer

The state needs to ban the usage of any type of electronic communication device - hands-free or otherwise - while anyone is operating a motor vehicle of any size.

Hopefully that would help keep drivers' attention on the roadways instead of on what they're talking or texting about . . .
