Just a tiny input of a great experience. A family member about 14 years ago got a ticket for not stopping at the 5 stop sign intersection at the Library at 12.30 am, when no one was on the road and the police car was invisible to him. Since that incident I am stoping at all stop signs at all times, because it’s simply the right thing to do. I had a great driving instructor who taught to leave home on time, with a reserve to get to the destination, to drive defensively and to respect road signs and other drivers. It’s simple and effective.😊
The signs on roads are there for a reason. And these days people drive fast, easy cars and on top of that are seemingly very self-centered, taking driving as a right, but- it’s a privilege. I have known too many friends, a family member and acquaintances who have lost their lives by someone driving irresponsibly that to be self-righteous just does not seem right. Wishing pleasant and safe driving to all! Agita Arista P.S.- And just wait those 2 seconds when a traffic light changes from red to green, because there tend to be a driver or two who just want to make through that yellow light turning into red at the intersection, specially, on Rt.2!

I recall in years past they were much more vigilant and I am not against that. We have small winding roads used for recreational use. I often walk at night and the amount of cars speeding and blowing the stop signs at the library is surprising to me. I feel we are fortunate to have a friendly, helpful and respectful police department.

We were taking the family today to dinner, and like many days, there was a police presence taking speed limits by Lexington Road coming downhill where the speed is difficult to control. We are conscious of this these days, but my overarching feeling is that they are typically pulling over Lincoln residents where the risk of accident or untoward event is quite limited. Appreciate any input from the community. Happy holidays to all. Marcus Winter street Lincoln, MA -- The LincolnTalk mailing list. To post, send mail to Lincoln@lincolntalk.org.
