The More Times Change—The More They Stay The Same

In 2005, Bonita-Sunnyside residents were fired up about "out-of-control traffic" and expressed it vocally at the July 27th State of Bonita annual meeting. County Supervisor Greg Cox was on the hot seat as the community reiterated over-and-over about how bad the traffic had become.

That was 2005.

Jump to 2026.

Traffic has not improved in 21 years. It's gotten worse-and-worse to the point that some locals feel that they take their lives in their hands daily, just trying to enter and exit their own driveways.

Thank you to the Common Sense reader who shared the following article written by Kelley Dupuis in August of 2005 in the South Bay Review.

The more times change, the more they stay the same.

"Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose." —French writer Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr in 1849
