On November 9, 2006 a 13 year old boy was hit by a truck in front of Bon View Elementary on Philadelphia and Bon View in Ontario, CA. Angel Ortiz was in the crosswalk when an F-250 went through the stop sign. A neighbor who was there comforted Angel with prayer until paramedics came. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
The family of Angel Ortiz is petitioning for a signal light at the corner where the accident took place. A four way stop is already there.
This could have easily been prevented if drivers would take a stop sign more seriously. We need the signal light to protect our children before, during and after school.
How many more kids need to die before the city does something? Stop signs clearly arent working. Put the light in.

My kids walk that way every single day and it scares me to death. People fly down Philadelphia like it's a freeway. We need this light now before another kid gets hurt.
