I am a vision impaired disabled vet who has been fighting with the FDOT for over ten years about their policy of placing street lamp posts in the middle of the sidewalk and calling it ADA Compliant because they only have to provide a 36 inch clearance to the curb for wheelchair access. Google “FDOT Corruption” and read how messed up they are. Florida Government is broken.
I will likely get struck by lightning for saying this, but would the average age of the population of Florida have an influence on these statistics??
Ka-boom!
I was thinking the same exact thing.
Actually, I have to say that running for cover from the torrential downpours and wind may be a cause.
Damn people should just stay off the sidewalk!!!
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a high correlation between distracted driving violations(texting/cell phone) and pedestrian injuries.
