Coto de Caza Collision Statistics 4Q2007 - was not a good quarter!
January 7, 2007
The last quarter of 2007 was chthonic anent traffic collisions in Coto de Caza. While the community enjoyed a significant dip during the third quarter, the fourth quarter recorded a total of 8 collisions, three of them DUI-related, not unlike the one that resulted in a lawsuit.
An allaying element is that the total collisions for 2007 are still lower than 2006, and even lower that the fatal 2005.
Sources tell us that a CZ board (YOH) may finally be open to a public safety awareness,
such as the one proposed by CHP’s captain Elzig- at a time when the traffic accident rate within Coto de Caza was doubling on a yearly basis the Board decided to terminate the contract with the CHP! Then, captain Elzig alluded that “accidents; could be a misnomer – implying that these could be treated instead as “traffic crimes”, since as the captain put it, “these are preventable”, and mostly a result of DUI, DWOP (driving while on the phone) or speeding. We are told that plans are underway for a community public safety awareness exhibit.
We trust said exhibit is a serious efforts effort, rather than the traffic control plan unveiled by the CZ board in April 29, 2005: Coto de Caza has traffic-patrol plan - Enclave would pay for extra Rancho Santa Margarita deputy hours to cover it. So reads a headline in the April 29, 2005 OCR. We asked the CZ board on numerous occasions to let us know what the plan entailed – we never heard from the board, and fatal results speak for themselves.
