Letters
(Ed. note: This is a copy of
a letter sent to Rep.
Kenneth Brandt.)
Dear Mr. Brandt:
I am a member of the
faculty at Riverview
Elementary School located
along Route 441, Marietta.
May 16th 1 had my
second narrow escape from
being hit as I was attempt-
ing a left-hand turn into
the school drive.
My signal lights in both
cases were on in good time
to warn the drivers of my

matter; to others, a seeming joke. The screams of the victorious reached 120 dB.

intentions, but they went
around me regardless.
Very recently, one of our
buses was hit. Last school
year one of our employees
was hit. Several of our
employees, faculty mem-
bers, and our principal
have been almost hit.
It seems the traffic lines
on the highway give the
drivers a feeling of all-
clear and they exercise no
caution whatsoever. A bit
farther west of the school.
I've noticed double solid
lines on the highway. I
believe the double solid
lines prohibiting passing
should be in front of our
school. I have not observed
any SCHOOL or SLOW
signs giving the drivers any
warning of the proximity of
the school.
This is definitely a dan-
gerous place. I am hoping
some action will be taken
before we have a fatality or
serious injuries.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Esther H. Kettering
School Teacher
