My neighbors and I have complained about reckless driving since 2016. Not only is it a matter of health and safety but our car insurance rates are almost unaffordable due to the high thefts, vandalism and accidents. It's scary. The people who whiz past you between the right and parking lane or cutting you off from the left lane of an intersection, those violent drivers fit multiple profiles. Young, old, male,. female, white, black, Hispanic, Asian, single occupant, or children in backseat. I'll seen them all. They're carelessly fearless. Stop studying and enact then enforce something before this City loses more taxpayers who are tired of feeling ignored.
I hate that I feel like a prisoner in this city. I'm scared to walk in my neighborhood due to the erratic driving and afraid to let my 10 year old ride her bike in front of the house because the house across the street was actually hot by a car that went out of control and the occupants fled.
I fear driving through the city to go places, even had a guy drive crazy and cut me off then pull a gun and point it me at the stop light a few years ago. The police said they could do NOTHING even though I called in to give the license plate number.
I have children of driving age, one WITH a license, and I fear her safety so I can't even let her borrow the car. She could just be riffing through a green light and have her life taken. I'm terrified for my family DAILY due to the amount of violence and crazy driving I witness personally, hear about from my friends, or see on the news.
I want to live in a place that is safe. My family and friends are here. This is my hometown. Unfortunately, when I start looking to buy a house in 2-3 years, I'm going to have to leave this city that I grew up in UNLESS changed are made.
Please, PLEASE make an effort to get our city back.
I am Damia Causey. Milwaukee resident. The reckless driving/stolen vehicle crisis in our city needs to stop NOW.
Citizens like myself are afraid to drive for fear of being carjacked, hit/killed by those who intentionally drive reckless and play Russian roulette with our lives. We can’t walk or run safely in our communities because cars drive on the sidewalk. I drive away from my community to go run and exercise in areas where I feel safe. The calm I feel in other communities, I should feel in my own.
Our lives our families lives are not a game. Our city is on fire and the current state reflects the lack of leadership at the top positions.
While everything cannot be blamed on our politicians, you set the tone for the how the city runs. Mr. Mayor, you are WAY TOO QUIET on the issues of violence and reckless driving. You should be embarrassed by the legacy you are leaving. This is YOUR city. Where are you? Stand up for the people of this city and if you aren’t capable of doing so, may Luxemburg welcome you swiftly.
Our common council. You all were elected to do the work of the people and it is high time that you do so.
The behavior and recklessness is unacceptable. Period..

Can you’ll figure out a plan within the next month, by January 2022?
