Joe: Be a leader. Get the police chief and traffic sarg. in an interview. Find out the stats on wrecks in the city, why, and what can be done to help the situation. Joe, continually reporting on them is making the public aware, but it is time to move the bar up a notch and lend a hand to try to get the number reduced. If it means more traffic patrol...so be it...get the city to do it! Go San Angelo!
