Description

Hello Seeclickfix Folks,

Not sure what can be done in this particular instance but I know many people (myself included), who have almost been struck by cars that refuse to stop for pedestrians in the Mass Ave crosswalk closest to Day St. I've lived in this neighborhood since 2006 and I'll have drivers not see me, drive around me, or accelerate at me (!) between 1-3x/week. I believe that drivers on Mass Ave have often just waited at a lights Dover St (southbound) or Rindge Ave (northbound) and are anxious to make it through the next set of lights without stopping.

I finally had to say something when I witnessed a disabled woman stranded on the median between the north and southbound lanes this past weekend.

Any effort to remedy the situation would be greatly appreciated!
