Neighborhood residents have said motorists “abuse this street terribly,” easily surpassing the 25 mile per hour speed limit at times. Police indicate speeding is “no more frequently than some other parts of our community and less than several other areas,” according to Giles.
Alcohol is also suspected as a factor in the accident, according to police, and Pressel was not wearing a seatbelt.
