Pots im its 25 everywhere pretty much. Much im sorry, i wont do itndot again. Thank you. When people are speeding through and slam on their brakee because they know theres camerr there. Ere. One of the biggest concerns with them are theye bigg really safety, you know, enhancer or dd they create these problems by b people wanting to avert theav te ticket and slamming on their the brakes and hence causing ance cn accident. You dont realize 25 is writi testify slow. It is slow. It is slow i. T it is w any wearing lets not do thaa for the new year. For the neye tracking metro some residents in pet worth can barely sleep atlet night and they say its metroso fault.

Ta so taylor avenue, fourth and and seventh streets northwest. Thst. Upper around the circle tha prominent. And theyre saying that itst i definitely a different kind ofid knows noise than theyve heardva before. They described it as deep lowp w trembling a low rumble that at times occasionally even shakesha things off of their walls. F of r listen to how she described ited to us. S all night and all day. Day definitely has been kind of n low rumble. Every time it trembles atrem night, i hear it and i wake upae sit up in the bed, i say, oh,h, thats a train runningunng underground. Reporter so it does seem see to coincide they say with the riflely 7,000 series rail cars l going now on the green line andd the yellow line which run from here at the pet worth station up the street and there are tunnele that is run underneath their the neighborhood votes so they sayys they believe it has something tg do witness 7,000 series railail cars, and our information those 7,000 series rail cr heavier than the old cars and a possible that could beible happening.
