[Nehkara]

First of all, I need to explain that our house is on a corner that tends to get very icy in the winter.

The problem arrives when many people see the blind and icy corner and go as fast as they can around it... only to find, to their complete surprise, that they lose control and hit things.

My parents and myself combined own 3 vehicles. All three have been hit in hit-and-runs in the last year. Our neighbours on either side have had their vehicles hit as well in hit-and-runs.

Yesterday our truck was hit and badly damaged in front of our house, again hit-and-run.

This corner just happens to be in a playground zone!

Help me... is there any action I can take? Can I get the City to put in new Playground Zone signs (the ones that mark the playground zone are very old and weathered)? Can I get the City to put in speed bumps? Can I get the police to patrol the street?

Thank you in advance for your help.


P.S. Every time this happens it bothers me even more... are there no decent people around? Who hits someones vehicle, does thousands of dollars in damage, and just takes off like nothing happened?
