My boyfriend and I were out for a walk last weekend and almost got ran over by a drunk driver if not for his (my boyfriends) quick moves. The driver had crossed the centre line and swerved into us along Dallas Drive. If we wouldn't have moved, both of us and our dog would not have been here today. This happened at 8pm. If we had a curbed sidewalk, it probably wouldn't have stopped him, but it would make us feel a heck of a lot safer than walking on the "road".

With more and more families moving into Dallas, it's time to get a proper sidewalk along our main road, Dallas Drive. I live along this road and see tens of adults, kids, dogs, and babies along this path daily. In the winter it's icy from the plows and hard to see for the drivers. For the safety of our community, let's please get a proper sidewalk in our community!
