Detroit neighborhood pushes for speed bumps after 8-year-old girl killed by speeding driver
The calls for action come just days after an 8-year-old girl was killed by a speeding car on Conner Street. Residents said they see drivers speeding down the street everyday and want the city to do something before another child is killed. She was only 16 years old, flying up the street, doing like 80 (miles per hour) up the street,โ Hill said. โWe need speed bumps and weโve been needing speed bumps for years,โ Hill said. This year alone we are installing more than 1200 speed cushions at 800 locations and are evaluating this stretch of Conner for possible speed cushions in the near future.
