Light at Asbury/Cookman/Kinglsey is a disaster waiting to happen. Most people
roll through stop signs and simply ignore that a flashing red light (Kingsley
and Cookman) is a stop sign. I have to blare my horn each time I roll through
on Asbury whether on two or four wheels.
Grand Avenue is another disaster. Take the traffic lights away if they are not
going to be used. Some traveling on Grand keep stopping thinking maybe they are
out. Personally, I think the lights should be used. Too many roll through
east/west stop signs.
MM pays for the cops monitoring the meters. A joke. We need those bike cops
back. Late Saturday cops checking coolers on beach for alcohol and issued
tickets. Should be patrolling streets and stopping muggings. Someone got mugged
getting off the train Friday.
And lastly, Road Trip has lost its original intent as a real estate marketing
tool to have people buy in AP. Nothing but a money-making circuit party for the
organizer(s). And I resent (and will speak up) against the closing of any
public property for a private event for which you have to pay. Why should a
section of the beach be closed off so a private group (bs on the
not-for-profit) can charge $45 and $60 to get in there? Why should the
CH/Paramount arcade - a public easement be closed Friday Night (Meet and Greet)
and you have to pay $15 to get in? This should not happen next year. Go rent a
PRIVATE venue and do not close a PUBLIC area that I pay taxes and beach fees to
use. That goes for weddings on the beach too that have had the nerve to ask
people to move while setting up?
