Commissioner urges drivers to slow down after reports of red‑light running at Town Creek and 3 Notch
Summary
The commissioner warned of frequent red‑light running at the Town Creek onto 3 Notch intersection after dozens of Facebook complaints and urged residents to 'slow down, Saint Mary's,' citing risky left‑turn conditions and urging caution.
The commissioner said he had seen numerous Facebook posts (about 40–50 comments) reporting drivers running the red light at the Town Creek approach to 3 Notch, creating dangerous conditions for left turns. He said drivers often pause because "more often than not, somebody is gonna come blowing through that light."
He directly urged residents to slow down: "Let's please please slow down, Saint Mary's," saying that a few extra seconds are not worth endangering lives. He offered this as a public‑safety appeal rather than announcing any enforcement action or new traffic measures.
