    The problem is that after stopping at the stop sign there, you need to move pretty far into the street in order to see if anything is coming down Lefferts. They need to put a “no standing” at the 1st parking space on the corner of Lefferts & Balfour.

  • to lefferts ave resident

    THAT SOUNDS VERY LOGICAL, WHY DONT WE REALLY PUSH FOR THAT

  • BR girl

    i cross that street everyday to go to school, and hardly any of the cars stop, even when i’m standing at the corner. its one thing not stopping at a stop sign, but its another thing when the pedestrian is waiting to cross and STILL the car doesn’t stop!!

  • How can you stop?

    I once tried stoppping by that stop sign, only to get hunked from the car behind me!

  • Go Bais Rivkah!!!

    Go Bais rivkah!!!
    I love when our school is mentioned!!!!!!

  • no standing? traffic light!

    if you put a no standing sign at that corner, that would be terrible for people living on that block. they would be losing another parking space which they are already short of. let them just put a traffic light.
