Good advice
A former Clarksville Police officer offered this advice to Clarksville Online for drivers coming through that area. “Slow down! Just because the speed limit is 50, that doesn’t mean you have to do 50. So slow down, and watch out for the other guy.”
Thanks for the map. I have been compaining for the local paper to insert links to mapsin the crime reports. Glad to see COL is on the cutting edge of technology.
Glad I can help :) I may eventually code a mashup showing the locations of all the crimes in the city during the last 24 hours…
