Hope tragedy not needed to help at FES

It took multiple people getting killed at the intersection of Highway 31 and Highway 113 before the Alabama Highway Department finally agreed to put rumble strips on 113 heading into Flomaton.

All of those fatalities involved people coming into Flomaton on Highway 113 and whether it was fog or whatever, they plowed into vehicles stopped on Highway 31 attempting to make a left turn. The last crash on Aug. 30, 2010, killed four people, including a father and his son who were making that left turn.

It took some begging and pleading and it took business owners and residents near that intersection...
