Residents
of Sitio Pinaungon in Balabag Boracay say they fear for their safety.
Motorcycles
are regularly racing down the street early in the morning and sometimes doing
miles per hour trying to beat each other from one light to other.
Residents
worry the drivers, the spectators or the people who live there will lose their
life if something doesn't get done soon.
Neighbors
say, "the street goes from a quiet residential and industrial neighborhood to
what looks like a scene from the movie 2 Fast, 2 furious when the sun goes
down."
According
to a report, “the teens who come there for drag racing apparently don't realize
real life has real consequences.”
So with
the help of council members, residents are urging the authorities to put actions
to this issue.
They're
passing around petitions hoping something gets done before someone is hurt or
killed.
