@Lamb Saag - I'd be lying if I said it didn't enter my mind. LOL! At any rate, I'm glad the people are okay.

Speed bumps everywhere! lol. yes, this car launched in the air as the house it hit is easily 8-10' above street level.

Stevedave, I will always agree people need to slow down (unless they're already going under the speed limit, obviously), but how can it honestly be controlled? It can't, really. People are gonna do what they're gonna do, no matter the laws. People who live on corners like this should put up trees, a concrete wall, anything that might stop a car from reaching the house. In this instance, tho, I don't know what would've stopped that car, apparently it was flying through the air like a bird...

sit on your porch with a shotgun. when he drives by, blast em. they wont drive down that road no more. see how easy that is? :)

wow...that's long winded. I'm just saying people need to slow down. ha.

SteveDave, let’s work this out. You claim the current speed limit is 35 MPH. You further claim people are constantly going 45-50 MPH. For the sake of argument I’ll accept those statements as factual. You claim the posted speed limit of 35 MPH is too high. So you are defining two problems here. A speed limit that, in your opinion, is too high and people who disregard posted speed limits. Your “solution” to these problems is to reduce the speed limit. I don’t know what criteria you used to determine the posted limit is too high (personal driving experience, perhaps?) but apparently, according to your own words, people are safely navigating this road at speeds in excess of ten miles over the limit. That leaves the problem of people who disregard the posted limit. If they disregard the current limit what will motivate them to obey the new limit? Perhaps a better argument is for more police presence to enforce existing limits. (Of course a bigger police presence also leads to more unconstitutional drug arrests). Perhaps government is NOT the solution here. Just my thoughts.

I figured someone would say that @Lee62. The point is, people are constantly going to fast on this road even when they aren't drinking, the posted speed limit is too high.

How is changing the posted speed limit going to stop people from driving over 100 mph? Glad the owners of the home weren't hurt. WKRC, better pictures are necessary.

The speed limit on that road is too fast to begin with, lower it to 25-30 mph vs 35mph. People are constantly going 45-50 mph, which is completely unsafe with all the curves and blind intersections.
