Ongoing Danger to pedestrians and bicyclists at PAcific St & Vanderbilt Ave

Location: 
Vanderbilt Ave. and Pacific St.
When: 
January 23, 2012 - 8:18am

I cross this intersection w/ 2 young children in a stroller 5 mornings a week and nearly as frequent as that, I see egregious moving violations. Typically the violation is cars in line on Pacific waiting to turn Left(south) on Vanderbilt, pull out into the oncoming traffic lane and gun their engine to turn left around the line of cars stacked up waiting to turn right. Numerous times I have been cautiously crossing Vanderbilt on the south side of Pacific only to be nearly mowed down by an angry driver aggressively turning left on Vanderbilt.

Pedestrian endangerment at Vanderbilt Ave. and Pacific St.

Location: 
Vanderbilt Ave. and Pacific St.
When: 
January 23, 2012 - 8:15am

As a parent who pushes 2 young children thru this intersection 5 mornings a week, I can tell you Pacific and Vanderbilt has become more dangerous. Around the 8am hour, vans and trucks are illegally turning left against a Red Light from northbound Vanderbilt onto the FCRC part of Pacific Street. If the van or truck driver sees there is no traffic letting out of Pacific from their right, they just turn left, not looking for pedestrians approaching from their left. In one semester of pre-school, I have been endangered in this situation a few times.
