Graduation for our Coronado High School seniors is rapidly approaching. Unfortunately this time of joy and celebration may result in tragedy and heartbreak for some in our city. In recent years we have seen the tragic deaths and serious injuries of several San Diego County teenagers. These tragic motor vehicle accidents were a direct result of young people consuming alcohol. In some cases alcohol was provided to the children by adults…

In our car crazy culture, drivers often forget that people on foot have rights too, especially when they cross the street.

Officially, cars must stop for pedestrians at the prolongation of the curb line, otherwise known as the crosswalk, whether marked or unmarked, according to the California Vehicle Code.
