Dear Editor,

This light has been needed for a long time. If you look back, there have been several accidents at this site. I know of at least one that did result in a fatality. I have to get onto 145 off Ollie almost on a daily basis, and it is a very dangerous area. There is a lot of traffic on 145 to begin with, and we all know that everyone drives the speed limit (yeah, right). Just as you think you’re clear to go from the left, you look around, and someone is flying around the curve from he right. I believe there is certainly enough traffic attempting to get on to 145 from Ollie to justify the traffic light, and I am very thankful for it.
