A pedestrian was hit by two vehicles that left the scene on Monterey Road Thursday night in south Morgan Hill, leaving the victim lifeless and suffering in the roadway, according to police.
September is Pedestrian Safety Month, and Morgan Hill Police will be working with law enforcement agencies throughout the state to promote safe behaviors on the part of drivers and travelers on foot.
“Red Phone, the flashing lights on the Little Llagas Creek crosswalk signs are permanently flashing. This gives a false signal to drivers that pedestrians are entering the roadway, which is not the case. I have observed some drivers stopping, while most are totally ignoring the flashing lights – since they are always flashing, (day and night). While I applaud the city for installing the creek path, the flashing lights at the crosswalk should only be activated when needed to give a real warning to drivers. This is the case for the creek crosswalk at W. Edmundson Avenue. Let's be consistent on how we install/use safety signage in our city. We do not need any more disasters on Cosmo Drive.”
