“He was crossing, but he was waiting in the middle and obeying the traffic rules. He was waiting for this traffic to clear his way. It wasn’t clear because he was still sitting there, and someone decided to come around and push him. “
Commissioner Alvin Mason Augusta visited the Cheyenne Memorial on Monday.
“It’s part of what I’m saying here,” he told WJBF. If you look, there is really no street light, very little light. I’m asking my colleagues if we need street lights here. We need to light up the place. “
Mason said Burton Chapel Road could easily be identified as a death trap, and adding speed bumps and other traffic signals could prevent another such incident.
He claims that if anyone is responsible, they will be held accountable. He said the truth remains that they must solve lighting and motion problems.
Georgia State Patrol is reportedly investigating the incident, and as of Wednesday, the GSP crash report has not been released.
