Gratefulmom,

How awful! I'd be super paranoid too. We live in a hilly neighborhood and though we have a lot of culs-de-sac and we live on one of these; I'm still hesitant to allow DD near the street mainly because we have so many twists and turns in our neighborhood which means a lot of blind spots and this is what I fear.
