State Highway St. Rd. 19 near County Rd. 4 Road

From Co. Rd. 4 to the Michigan Line, the cars travel at such a terribly high speed, I can’t believe there haven’t been more accidents. There is a narrowing of the lanes and all the cars going into Michigan try to get ahead of others and its really scary. If you try to turn off into a sub-division along there, you are putting your life in danger as the cars trying to turn left have to wait on traffic coming south and all the cars traveling north just zoom in and around and I’ve come so close to getting hit turning into Quail Ridge Drive and its getting worse all the time. I’ve been hoping there would be some police sitting in this areas and letting the speeders be aware, this has to stop. There are two sports cars that race quite often and it is not safe, someone is going to get killed.

It is very dangerous. I used to live in the area and MANY people have died along this stretch, including one high-school student who was decapitated. There SHOULD be police posted along here constantly to monitor speeders. Part of the problem is the Michigan "driver" going to and from work in Elkhart. Apparently one does NOT need to know how to drive to get a license in Michigan - that should change as well.

If this isn't a speed trap, it should be. How else to slow down the high speed traffic. Please note, not all the speeders are Michiganders. Some of us Hoosiers have a pretty heavy rigth foot too.
