Hi, I'm Randall, and right behind is a stop sign. It's actually a four-way stop, and one of the things that I notice as I often go running is that people really don't often pay attention. They're sometimes eating a sandwich or drinking something or playing on their cell phone, and it's really dangerous. And sometimes I wish, I wish I could just scream or say something, but probably the best thing is to just pay attention to what are you're doing, wear bright clothing so they can see you, so when they don't stop, your safe.
