Milford's Driving Pitfalls

By -
Recently, I received a comment from reader Joseph DeRosa about some of the unsafe driving conditions in Milford. I love receiving feedback from readers, and I am going to post his concerns here. They are below, and I was wondering if you agree with Joe, and do you have any specific areas that are troublesome. Please post your comments here, or email me at bmccready@nhregister.com

Brian , Milford seems to more than the average town unsafe corners for
drivers and pedestrian traffic.

By unsafe I mean they are blind spots until your beyond the corner
itself or the curve of the intersection is blinded by the turn itself.

As a writer and a retired insurance broker these situations stand out
throughout Milford.

It is worth reporting about so that our city government will do some
correction on these 'hazards'.

Thank you, respectfully,
Joe DeRosa

Here are all the ones I could find in chronological order: -Peter Spinelli (1996) -Unidentified male remains (1994) -Unidentified male remains (1992) -Anna E. Hiltz (1983)** -Constance Roberts (1982)  -Blasé Miserendino (1978) -Gary Steadman (1977) -Kenneth Matteson (1975) -Charles McCoy (1968) Sometimes, homicides take a long, long time to solve. And sometimes, after a while, people come out of the woodwork with some scrap of evidence or memory that helps close a decades-old crime. I'm still working on the story, but I wanted to reach out to the Milf
