How many is that there this year? Four? What would stop this from happening? Flashing yellow lights? Rerouting Deer Road? Enough is enough.

Middlesex Township is working on plans to close Deer Lane at Wertzville Rd. BobbieSue, we are glad that she is able to recover as well as the others; things could have been much worse based on the type of collision. We appreciate you taking the time to thank us.
