I guess this is hatching time for the sea turtles of Florida, and unfortunately some of those baby sea turtles are run over by cars. This is happening because of the confusing lights that coming from the street and making the turtles crawls in the wrong direction – the street instead of the ocean.
Some changes already been made and the street light has been adjusted, but the turtles are still confuse because of the street business’s lights such as the light of the local pizza restaurant.
