One alternative to speed humps is to request speed traps. This requires a policeman to be stationed in the neighborhood instead of patrolling the streets. In addition, the officer could not be here all the time. Some people have suggested listing in the newsletter descriptions of cars that are seen speeding repeatedly. I see on the curb side playing or waiting for a school bus.
People do speed and the traffic on Oak Creek seems to increase daily.
One and one-half years ago my neighbor was hit by a speeding car, taken to the hospital and treated for injuries. He could have been killed and he continues to have problems with his hand as a result of the accident. I am very much in favor of the speed humps particularly around the two blind curves coming into our subdivision from FM 1325. It was so effective that the victims' complaints to the City got them stopped. I still am not convinced that we have a serious traffic problem in this neighborhood.
