Accident waiting to happen
This is the Rail Trail crossing at old Lancaster Road. A few days ago, I was on Lancaster heading towards Rt 20. I drive slowly anyway down these side roads but for whatever reason, I came to a stop, even though no one was in the crosswalk. A bike came full speed out of nowhere, right through this crosswalk. Had the timing been any different, I'd have run him over or he'd have slammed into my car and hurt himself.
I like the trail, I just wish people, all people using it, realize they are crossing streets along the way. When it's car vs bike, the guy on the bike gets hurt. I can and do, go slow, but that won't keep a biker from slamming into me.
