I have lived in Lathrop for the last 5 years. I have witnessed reckless driving that is pretty rampant throughout the city - people racing on River islands parkway, completely blowing through stop signs, ignoring the pedestrian right of way, driving on the wrong side of the road, passing on the left, driving the wrong direction in a round about. I've never seen this level of lawlessness in a city or town. It's unnerving. It's ridiculous. It needs to stop. We have beautiful new homes in the river islands community and this behavior brings down the entire town - it's a turn off.
Ticket Comment
Traffic team as well as they rest of patrol have been briefed about the traffic in the area. Will be out to enforce when time permits with calls for services. Please call dispatch as this is occurring.
