The residents of a condominium community along Woodhaven Road in Northeast Philadelphia say they are tired of accidents in the area. That comes after a car crashed into a home recently. Call Kwartler Manus to schedule a free consultation with a Philadelphia car accident attorney.
The Details of the Safety Improvement Request
Those within the community say that cars, trucks, and even some tractor-trailers come off Route 63 and fail to slow down as they should as they enter the residential area where the North Point Condominiums are located. The most recent incident involved a car that struck a home so significantly that the homeowner came down the steps to see what the loud boom was, only to find a man in the living room and dining room in his car.
That incident, which took place on January 7th, involved the car coming off the roadway, going through a fence, passing a community pool, and then striking the home. The residential neighborhood surrounding the off-ramp is just 25 miles per hour, and numerous signs exist encouraging drivers to slow down. Reckless driving is also a concern.
Residents brought their concerns to a Captain’s Town Hall meeting at the 8th Police District in February. Their goal is to increase police presence in the area by moving the aggressive driving detail to the Woodhaven Road area.
