'The message is: please use a crosswalk, especially at night, especially on an expressway.' Two people died in a traffic accident that turned fatal in San Jose. Now, the city may be on its way to a milestone, but it's a record city leaders don't want to break.
There is growing concern in the South Bay, as traffic deaths in San Jose near record levels.
"It took until March 6, 2021 to reach six traffic fatalities," San Jose Police Dept. Sgt. Christian Camarillo said."Now, January 18 was obviously our sixth." "This is a terrible start to the year. This time last year, we had one traffic fatality on San Jose streets," City of San Jose Department of Transportation Public Information Officer Colin Heyne said."Last night's two fatalities were our sixth and seventh."The City of San Jose's Department of Transportation says Almaden Expressway is one of seventeen priority safety corridors: big streets, with lots of lanes and high speeds.
"Our ask to the public is to slow down, first and foremost," Heyne said."Our other ask is to pay attention and that obviously applies to everybody using the road." In the accident Tuesday night, the three people involved were not using crosswalks to cross the street.
