Residents ask Robbins to install speed bumps after alleged speeding crash on Lyndale Drive
Summary
Solemn Rodriguez asked the commission for speed bumps on Lyndale Drive, describing frequent speeding near a school drop-off area and presenting video she said shows a collision; commissioners said police had been contacted and expressed support for further action.
Solemn Rodriguez told the commission she and most neighbors on Lyndale Drive have small children and have observed repeated speeding in the neighborhood, particularly around the 3 p.m. school drop-off period. Rodriguez said she brought video evidence, which she described as showing a likely-intoxicated driver striking a parked car and moving it a parking space, and argued that speed bumps are needed to protect children and families.
Commissioner (speaker 3) asked whether Rodriguez had contacted the police chief; Rodriguez said she had. Commissioners voiced support and asked staff to investigate the time frames and options for traffic calming. The manager and a commissioner indicated they had seen the video and that additional enforcement or traffic-calming measures could be considered and coordinated with police.
No formal action was taken at the meeting; staff and police were asked to follow up and return with recommendations for speed‑reduction measures or enforcement steps.
