LA Considers Speed Bumps for Elementary Schools After Tragic Mid-Wilshire Accident
Los Angeles officials will consider a proposal to add speed bumps near every elementary school in the city after a mother was struck and killed while walking her 6-year-old daughter to school. The driver of the pickup truck was driving fast at the time of the collision and crashed into an apartment building after hitting them. The mother died at the scene, and the 6-year-old girl was rushed to the hospital in critical condition. Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky says she will support the motion to install speed bumps near elementary schools to ensure the safety of children and the surrounding school communities.
