Please sign my petition requesting that collier county place speed bumps in the three following areas: Estey avenue, Lakewood blvd and coconut circle in East Naples Florida. Drivers are exceeding the limits upwards of 25+ mph, using this area as a cut-through and creating an extremely dangerous environment for children walking to and from school or to play safely. Just a few of the recent examples include: A 12 year old boy was hit and killed on the corner of Estey and Lakewood in November, a woman well exceeding the speed limit and using coconut circle as a cut through drove through our yard hitting a power pole and knocked down our neighbors fence last week; and a neighborhood child was hit by a side view mirror checking the mail earlier in the year. Speed limit signs are proving not effective to slow these drivers down. Several attempts have been made by myself and others to get in contact with collier county, I have become desperate to make our concerns and public safety a priority for our children and fellow neighbors.

Seeing this community unite around our streets suggests that we are finally moving past the stage of individual concern toward a collective demand for safety. This momentum encourages me to believe that local officials will have to acknowledge the reality of the danger our children face every day.

Speed bumps should also be placed in the estates. People are constantly flying down the mile long roads.

There are definitely not enough pedestrian crosswalks in the area near the school. Poor kids don't even know when to cross and idiot drivers don't let them cross. Very dangerous area for kids.

Please do so!!! I have two little girls and live off of 18th Ave Ne, close to Sabal Palm Elementary and there’s always cars literally FLYING Down our street!!! My girls can’t even enjoy our home because I’m sooo terrified of what could happen.

A simple speed bump can prevent a death. It is irresponsible to not explore this option.

The fact a petition needs to be done is insane! The accidents in this neighborhood is higher than most in Collier County - Enough is enough!

I live in this neighborhood and this is absolutely a danger that needs to be addressed by the county asap for our families.
