Oxton & Oriole; I Avoid That Intersection...!

Here's a note from Crystal, a local Oxton-Oriole neighborhood resident, who writes...

...I don’t know if there’s still a petition to sign, I’d be more than happy to get my signature on that if it’s still possible. I certainly have my own share of stories with our horrible intersection.

I’ve lived [on] Oriole for 5yrs now, and I tend to avoid going to Davisville as often as possible, as there have been many moments when I’ve just missed being hit. I don’t recall the date, but I did actually have a complaint lodged with somebody or other down at City Hall, as I had literally been missed by mere inches by a guy who went around the corner at about 40km, and I can guarantee that he didn’t even see me.

And when drivers do see you, it’s clear they’re irritated that they even have to slow down to allow you to finish crossing. It’s just extra stress that we don’t need, enough of that already from other areas of life!
