ST. GEORGE — Two women were sent to the hospital Wednesday after a car allegedly ran through a stop sign at the intersection of 300 South and Main Street in St. George, resulting in a two-vehicle crash.
Around 2 p.m., a Honda Accord collided with a Toyota Scion at the intersection after the driver of the Honda allegedly failed to stop at a stop sign, St. George Police Officer Lona Trombley said.

It does seem there are lots of accidents at that intersection. How about the guy who had a dashcam going? The city should paint STOP on 300 South. City officials (and police) need to camp out and check out the situation.
