SOS Commonwealth

Someone should really start doing something about Commonwealth Avenue. It is the widest road in the country although not a major thoroughfare in the mold of EDSA or Espana. Overspeeding and reckless bus drivers continue to lord it over, putting drivers' and pedestrians' lives at constant risk. And then you have those FX taxis, tricycles, and jeepneys. It has been, for the longest time, a graveyard of accident victims young and old alike. I'm trying to source data on the number of accidents and fatalities along this infamous death road. If anyone out there has data on this please feel free to post it. Being a resident of one of the subdivisions in the area, I feel it's time for someone, anyone, to do something about the situation. How many deaths accidents must we read and hear about before we do something?
