The San Luis Obispo Police Department has identified the pedestrian killed Saturday evening near The Cucini Kitchens & Baths as 48-year-old Lesley Adams.

At about 8:20 p.m., Adams was attempting to cross Broad Street at the intersection of Woodbridge Street when she was struck by a northbound vehicle, according to neighbors. Adams died at the scene.

The driver then pulled his car into The Golden Paw parking lot, and went to check on Adams.

An investigation into the fatal crash is ongoing. Police do not believe drugs or alcohol played a factor in the accident.

Well here comes the stop lights, crosswalks, flashing signs etc etc on Broad. Personally, I’m tired of traffic taking a back seat to pedestrians making bad choices!

I hate to break it to you, but a lighted crosswalk has been under construction at approximately the location of this fatality on Broad Street for several weeks already.
