How safe are the roads in Allentown? Today Mayor Tuerk, and Chief "Naked Gun" Roca urged Allentown residents to drive safe. Vs. Driving recklessly????
County Coroner Daniel Buglio said "Lehigh County has already seen 37 roadway deaths in 2025, about a 20% increase from 2024."
Officials spoke at 7th St./ Tilghman St. citing the intersection as the worst in the city. So stay away from there.
Tuerk spoke on behalf of his grand plan of Vision Zero- a citywide plan to achieve zero roadway deaths and serious injuries by 2030. Speed bumps, line painting, churros/ bike lanes and maybe some roundabouts will all make this happen. Maybe on Mars.
So are their robots driving the electric cars in 2030? No deaths or serious injuries? What kind of plan is this, and why hasnt Trump used this genius idea to roll out over the country? What's the plan for zero crime called? Vision New Chief?
Chief Naked Gun spoke about driving safety stating "Ladies and gentlemen, this is about personal responsibility.” Roca also claimed the Allentown Police department will be out in full force at Wawa and Dunkin Donuts, so dont drive drunk and get hungry. You could be in for a problem.
Buglio expressed concerns about motorcyclists crashing. I could only imagine roundabouts and speed bumps making it easier for motorcyclists to maneuver around the city.
This is a dumb press release, look at me photo op. We all know how dangerous streets are. Quit blowing smoke that your vision is going to stop vehicle deaths. I mean this is not worse than borrowing $134 million.

Driving anywhere in Allentown is like driving bumper cars... no rules... More than once I have nearly been T-boned or T-boned some bonehead that blasted thru a signal or sign at speed. My street sounds Pocono on race day, but where are the police??? My area seems, for all intents and purposes, to be a police "no go" zone. Change my mind!!!
Driving on American Parkway is like a racetrack in the morning. There will always be accidents there. Where is the money to implement this so called Vision Zero plan coming from.?
