Two years after intentional crash that left one person dead, 800 safety posts have been installed along the Las Vegas Strip.
LAS VEGAS, NV - As a proactive measure, the city of Las Vegas has begun installing safety posts along the Las Vegas Strip.
According to Michael Scott Davidson of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Clark County has already installed 800 steel posts along the Strip for added pedestrian safety. The safety posts can withstand a collision from a 15,000 pound vehicle traveling at 50 MPH, the report says.
In December 2015, Lakeisha Holloway was charged with murder after she ran her vehicle into a crowd of pedestrians on the Las Vegas Strip.
