Trust me, we will see many more of these accidents at this intersection. Why the decision to remove the stop light was made makes absolutely no sense. Why fix something when it isn't broke? We have the same situation at other locations where stop lights were removed and replaced with "STOP" signs. More accidents, more injuries, more property damage, not to mention taking Police Officers away from other duties just because some "IDIOTS" at the City of San Angelo, decided to remove the lights. Drive down West Beauregard and you will see what I mean. A once "SAFE" driving zone is now a "RACING & DANGEROUS" driving zone! What will it take to make our City Government Officials understand this?
