The SLOW DOWN sign didn't work

Mike you in the white truck with no signage. What do we need to get you to SLOW down. The mother's on this street want his truck plate number so we can call it into the Aptos Highway Patrol. He drives by before 8:00 am in the morning and leaves at dusk. I saw him drive slow once! which was last night 2-26-2011 and then fast this morning at 7:50 am.


OK great now the guys look at my house and drive faster. How does one get trucks driving on Danube to one stop at stop sign on Jennifer and two slow down!
Slow down to Superior Alarm Co both trucks and the D & G Sanitation guy who looked right at me and sped past the SLOW KIDS at Play sign today 10_11_2010 Aptos High Patrol please can you get on these guys. The kids are out minimum day all week!


Even with the sign out on the road the neighbors cat got ran over due to a speeding driver who didn't even stop to say sorry.

So as I'm going out to put up this sign I watch a truck and trailer run the stop sign at Jennifer and Danube. I'm thinking maybe if I put this sign up the Plumber in the white unmarked truck will stop and slow down.
NO he went even faster today.
I stopped the next work truck that had run the stop sign earlier and asked him to please have his guys stop at the sign and to ask the plumber to slow down. I told him he went even faster this morning.

I hope the Aptos Highway Patrol will check for him on Soquel Drive. He usually arrives right before 7:00 am but today he was late at 7:25 am. There are young kids heading for the bus. He doesn't seem to care. We do. This is just making the neighbors talk more and band together. Most of us weren't paying much attention to the new build but now its on everyone's radar more than ever.

Dude will you please SLOW DOWN!!!

Well it's not just the one white truck anymore. If it could only be that easy.
Mesa Grande drivers can you slow down too. Worst culprits are the lady in the Black Mercedes and Woman in the Gold Volvo Wagon

What is the point in driving at a high rate of speed on a daily bases past our houses on Vienna, Jennifer and Danube Drive in Aptos? This is not a freeway but our neighborhood. Yesterday at 6:59 am you streaked by I called and someone was going to ask you to slow down. And today at 4:20 pm you did the same.
We already deal with concrete trucks driving by every 20 minutes until 10:00 pm at night. Did we complain no.
But if you keep speeding by I will have issues.
Their is a 5 year old boy who just learned how to ride a bike who rides up and down the street. It makes me nervous wondering when you are going to drive by.

WTF

By the way there is a STOP sign on Jennifer and Danube you blow through. Can you please stop.

Vienna Woods + Park Wilshire Field Aptos

I know it's been hard for all of the neighbors to get use to loosing the field. Sad faces and lots of families walking around the streets. (Dog poop piles on the streets like never before gross) Cars coming up with their dogs and a big fence blocking the old path (u turn). Well it was bound to happen since the property was purchased 12 years ago. Yes we had the field for 47 years+ I'm going to miss riding up Haas and cutting across the field instead of dealing with the cars racing down Vienna. Try riding your bike up with your family while people are going 45 in both directions.
Give them a break. Stop thrashing their fences and causing more grief. The path is still in the works for those that are concerned. The more hassle the worse it will be for all. My motto is treat others like you would like to be treated.

Thank you for clearing the field back and trimming the Oaks. Having a fire break is a good thing.

Please drive slow through our neighborhood as we have pets and kids that are on the streets playing or blindly walking in our case with our old dog. Respect us and we will do the same.

A sub-division would suck which is rumored for the flat area of the field which of course is behind our house. Guess it's not a rumor. ;(

Got the memo about the Cavanah's Hill or Cardiac Hill

Good and bad news. The good news is the homeless camps and dangerous fire hazards will be cleaned up this spring in the Vienna neighborhood field behind Cabrillo College as their are 5 encampments and 4 men and two women living out there with open fire pits and trash everywhere piling up. Bad news is they will start construction on the Cavanah's (from the old owners) or Cardiac Hill (current name). So enjoy the view while you can. You can't blame anyone that purchased the property to want to build on top of that hill. It's been a great 50 plus years of open space. Things change. At least it's not a whole neighborhood going up.

Sea to Trail info.

Bottom photo myself and my brother photo by my dad 1963. Why I care about the shit that's going on out there. I'm lucky to have played in the field growing up.
