The fatal hit-run accident in Logan Township on April 29 must remain a wake-up call regarding the need for tougher enforcement in the highway corridor consisting of Plank Road, Pleasant Valley Boulevard and Valley View Boulevard.
The speeding problem within the corridor is and has been well known.
However, that long-held knowledge has been unsuccessful in producing the kind of beefed-up enforcement steps that might even have prevented what occurred on the night in question.
That night, on Pleasant Valley Boulevard in the area of the Pleasant Valley Shopping Center, the life of a 65-year-old pedestrian was snuffed out by the driver who fled the accident scene.
