My living room backs up to a T-intersection in the alley. I also live next door to a school.

Every. Single. Day. I see parents on their phone blowing through the stop signs in the alley at that intersection. During school drop-off! While there are kids and parents walking in that alley to get to the school!

It is utter madness.

No enforcement, no consequences, so nobody is going to change.
