Rampant ATV drivers

After watching recent news about an ATV chase, I can say that I live “in the middle of nowhere,” as described by the TV anchor.

We have had problems with ATVs running up and down our street all hours of the day and night. It gets annoying sitting in my living room and not being able to open the windows for fresh air because of the incessant noise from ATVs going down the street. It’s even more annoying when I try to sleep and these vehicles are running at 2 a.m.

Why is it that we get no response from Miami-Dade when we ask that this area be policed more to cut down on these drivers’ actions? I wish Miami-Dade police would take our concerns more seriously.

Mary Dukanauskas,
