Hanna Speedway
It's ironic that I was reading this morning about the man speeding in a Jaguar. I returned home from taking my daughter to school to find a man bleeding profusely and badly hurt laying in my yard. He had been hit and the woman who hit him had taken off. She hit him so hard that he flew over the fence and into a tree.
Update:
From TPD Traffic Unit website:
| ) |  I have a problem with people speeding in my neighborhood, what can I do about it?Complaints of speeding, stop sign violations or any other traffic concern can be reported to the Traffic / Motor Unit who will follow up on your complaint. They can be contacted at: Tampa Police Department Traffic Unit 411 N. Franklin St Tampa, FL 33602 (813) 276-3471 | ||

| 4) | I saw an illuminated speed sign in another neighborhood the other day. How can I get that in my neighborhood? The traffic speed sign is primarily used in conjunction with ongoing traffic complaints. However, when complaints are done, it is possible to request that the sign be placed in your neighborhood for a day to monitor traffic. | ||
| | | ||
| 5) | How does the illuminated speed sign work? The traffic speed sign is sent out daily to different locations within the city to alert motorists and to educate them on the speed limit posted on the road that they are traveling upon. It is primarily used in conjunction with traffic complaints as there is a computer built into the system that records vehicle counts, speed and average speed based upon the volume of traffic. This determines the need for additional enforcement or recommendations to other city departments for action. | ||

OMG this is awful! Is the man going to be ok? Did anyone get the tag of the lady? Can we lynch her?
Grill her ass at the grill off!
Run over her?
Stake her close to the edge of the road let people scare her as they speed by?

I just saw the news report on Channel 10. How horrible. Flora street has the same problem of people coming off of Nebraska down Flora to 15th driving at race way speeds. I did try a year ago to have speed bumps put in, the city came out and did a measure on traffic and stated that there was nothing they can do at this time. If anyone has any luck at making changes down their street, I would be interested in hearing how you got it accomplished. I would hate to see the same thing happen again as did this morning. As most of us know, it was a matter of time. People cut through to avoid traffic on Hillsborough. I will be keeping a close eye out for any speeders and report them, that seems to be the only way to make a change.
I just spoke to a friend of the man hit. They don't expect him to make it.
Trust me when I tell you, lynching her would have been too nice. She dropped her 10yr old daughter off at school after she hit him. She told the deputy that brought her back to the scene that she thought she hit "something". Then she kept wanting her male friend who showed up to get her some cigarettes. At that moment, I totally understood angry mob mentality.
He was a nice guy. My very protective dog never barked at him. As long as I live, I'll never get the image of him laying in the dirt, bleeding and struggling to breathe.
Holy sheet, what a horrible story.
I drove by the scene on my way to work this morning.
Isn't that a school zone?
It's right by Seminole Heights Elementary.
She needs to do some time for vehicular manslaughter if this poor man doesn't make it.
This is sooo sad. And the saddest part is that there are at least ten other streets in SH where this exact thing "almost" happens on a daily basis!
I walk my dog every morning and things like this scare me to death! I walk along Taliaferro where there are no sidewalks and people drive down the middle of the road. I'm really afraid that someone will hit me or my dog one day.
You know, the best way to handle this might be to have the city (or someone) come out and dig potholes in the road surface. They're self-maintaining, and nothing slows traffic down like a sudden sharp dropoff of twelve inches that can break a strut.
