Vallejo school board expresses concern over ice cream trucks – Times Herald

By John Glidden

The Vallejo school board is not screaming for ice cream.

The trustees held a spirited discussion — during a recent meeting — about safety concerns regarding ice cream trucks parked in front of Vallejo High School.

Vallejo High School teacher Andrew Johnansen, called for Nebraska Street — which splits the high school and former Vallejo Middle School — to be closed during school hours. He said students who may have a class at the former middle school campus, run the risk of being hit by cars who travel down the street, “sometimes not too safely.”

Johnansen said several ice cream trucks park on Nebraska Street — just as school is ending — are sometimes near crosswalks, making it difficult for those wishing to use crosswalks to see around the vehicles.
