Most recently a double-fatal.
Would not have occurred if the street had been properly designed.

Police car video of the crash. You can see the police car is going in excess of 100 MPH and does not have flashing lights or siren on. Prosecutors think they were racing coming back from a mutual aid call in West Haven - that's why criminal charges were filed. Lowering the speed limit to 20 mph on a US highway would not fix that problem.
