" I am writing regarding an issue that is very important to myself and the neighbors in our town. We are trying to figure out why the transportation dept for our city schools will not bus our children that are just under two miles from their school. In an ordinary circumstance, this would not be a concern. In the town of Sennett, which is outside the city of Auburn, there are no sidewalks for our children to walk on. There are no crossing guards to let them know when it is safe to cross . The speed limit outside the city is 40 mph, but on any given day you will see cars going as fast as 65 mph. So, after tring to find out who is responsible for the safety of our children, the answer still comes out the same,no one. The school board can't help. The Town can't put in sidewalks.So, my question is, if God forbid, one of our children is injured by a vehicle while walking to or from school, who is liable? If anyone can help with the answer to this most disturbing dilemma, please let me know. "
