A mother taking a stand!

For the Past six months or so I have watched and heard cars go past our house so fast and I decided to take action. On the south side of our town, there is a road that takes you out towards Ephraim that they closed do to construction. They have detoured all traffic down our road past our house. When you are a mother or father who has children who want to go outside and play and you have to say NO because you are worried for their safety, this is quite a big deal. We have had cops sit down past our house monitoring and have issued many tickets. They have also called the construction company and told them to have all workers slow down. Still, I have not seen any change. This morning I laid in bed and was awoke by what I thought sounded like a train going past our house, but was actually a big semi truck passing. So I have decided that I am done and something more needs to be put to action. So I made a sign saying "A MOTHER IS BEGGING YOU TO PLEASE SLOW DOWN" and Katelynn and I went and stood outside by the road holding them. It was very interesting to see the reactions as people drove by. Some gave a thumbs up. Some even waved and got on there CB's to inform the others coming down the road about it. Athough, I still even had one just give me a dirty look and speed up. One of the Foremans pulled over and told me "good job, now that's getting it done". He also told me he was going to inform his boss of a few co-workers pasted us driving really fast and what was going on. He also has a highway patrolman as a friend and is going to have him come and monitor it also. It's nice to know some people still care. Tomorrow I'm going to the city building and filing a complaint and seeing what can be done with that. If any of you know anybody working the construction on Pigeon Hollow lane in Spring City Utah, please inform them of my concern that the speed limit is 25 mph. Thank You for helping a Mother stand against wreckless driving.
