Stop sign installation
I am so pleased with the installation of the stop sign on Sawtelle Blvd. I have seen far too many accidents and near misses over the years.
What a relief that now drivers will have to slow down. Kudos to the city for making safety a priority.

Thanksgiving charity
It was so heartwarming to read about Paul LaRocco and his efforts to help the homeless. I have always known that Culver City was the best place to live and raise a family.
Now it has just been confirmed. You can bet I will be eating pizza a lot more often.

Election coverage dismay
I was absolutely disgusted that no national election coverage was included in this paper. Is Culver City not part of the nation? Did your candidate not win or are you just racist?
Every single paper in every single city had something. I have a bi-racial daughter and think it is deplorable that our community news chose to ignore such a historical and news worthy issue.
I will be leaving the paper in the gutter where it belongs

Remembering loved one
We recently commemorated the tenth anniversary of the death of our daughter Sarah.
A red-light runner killed her when she was only 31 years old. Since then, it has become our mission to advocate for safety initiatives that reduce crashes and prevent needless deaths.
California roadways are dangerous. Every year nearly 3,000 people are killed on roads in the state – roughly eight per day.
There is no doubt that our streets and roads would benefit from increased safety measures.
One such safety measure is traffic safety cameras, which communities across the country are using to make their roadways safer.
By changing dangerous driver behavior, safety cameras have been proven effective in reducing red light running and dangerous crashes, preventing injuries and saving lives.
Though Los Angeles has now turned off its safety cameras, the program was enormously successful, reducing red light collisions by 62%.
In the next three hours, another person will be killed on California roadways. Drivers must not be allowed to endanger others by ignoring our most basic traffic safety law – red means stop.
We encourage Los Angeles area officials to consider re-activating safety
