At least 3 deer killed at night w/in 8 days, at SAME spot on west 5th street, close to PC Sound.
Within the last hour, I think abt 60 speeding cars have run over the carcass smearing it all over 5th street. Soon there will be nothing left of it but mush & crushed bones. The cars are going 50 mph and so they cant see it in time to move over. I think City of Washington may need a deer crossing warning sign here on west 5th street. Or... the NC transportation Dept should slow the traffic down. 50 mph speed limit here in the city limts is too fast here, where all these houses have tiny driveways, that ppl need to almost stop to turn into, is too fast. We asked the NC dept of Transportation to slow the traffic, but they said the City of Washington didnt want it slowed. We asked the city police to call someone to move it, the dispatcher told me the highway is not their jurisdiction. At 50mph the deer are in danger from speeding vehicles, & the people are in danger too. 50 mph is too fast
