COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Reckless drivers are causing major headaches for people who live near Centennial Blvd. and 30th Street.
According to the Colorado Springs Police Department, one motorcyclist died there from a fatal crash in 2023.
A viewer, Jay Mullenix, reached out to News5 with concerns over excessive speeding.
Mullenix is a veteran and loud noises from aggressive drivers have triggered his PTSD.
“It lasts for minutes to hours,” Mullenix said.
He says this issue is bigger than having a loud noise every day. It’s about safety.
“There’s a lot of pedestrians out there. There are a lot of bike riders,” Mullenix said. “I’m concerned that there’s going to be really bad accident.”
Mullenix was fed up with aggressive speeding on the road, so he installed a camera in his backyard to record drivers.
“I wanted to be able to show what was going on Centennial Blvd,” Mullenix said.
I asked the Colorado Springs Police Department if it would be possible to increase speed enforcement in a certain area.
