Re: 112th and Van Buren traffic circle

112th was busy and high-speed during the period it served as a detour
around Imperial Hwy. I went into kinder at that time (1947), and on
the return trip I had to wait for mama to come walk me over to the
Maggies' side (no crosswalk at Berendo). But I also remember that a
few years later I did two rabbit runs in quick succession across
112th, causing screeching brakes both ways, and Lamora called mama to
rat me out.

> Yes. That's the smallest traffic circle I've seen also. I guess the intent is to slow traffic down. Remember that there were a number of accidents in front of your house on 112th. I think you have at least two if not three photos of those. One you don't have is the accident my mother had right there when she was taking us to school in our 41 Chevy. She got hit in the right rear when attempting to cross 112th on Berendo. People tended to go too fast on 112th.
