Lived on Hancock Road for seven years; described a neighbor's child nearly hit at the bus stop last fall because passing cars must pull into the dirt on the narrow road. Urged approval of the speed humps.

A 46-year resident who described shortcut drivers speeding 40-60 mph on the 12-foot-wide road, forcing vehicles half off the pavement to pass. Supported the humps but said the real fix is the future Kathleen Road widening.
