Blue State Blues: Oakland Neighbors “Take Matters Into Their Own Hands” to Fight Reckless Driving Sideshows
18th August 2024
Neighbors in Oakland have had enough with reckless driving and, since their years of complaints are going unnoticed, they’re banding together and doing something about it.
Frustrated by years of reckless driving, Oakland homeowners took action by placing dirt- and rock-filled tires on busy streets.
On Tuesday, city crews faced hecklers while removing the tires from East 21st Street, according to Fox KTVU.
Odelson Souza said his 2 year old son was almost hit by a speeding car on the sidewalk, telling Fox: “Look, please help us. Who else we gonna call? Superman?”
