I have observed that everyone in the community that drives down 17th street, does not stop and let students cross. I’ve seen students assume that people will stop, but you cannot because every driver on 17th street do not understand that inside the campus we stop at the white lines for crossing. As a pedestrian, always make sure that the driver slows down, and stops before you cross. Don’t assume that they will stop.
