Wyoming Police are investigating after a 77-year-old pedestrian was hit and killed by a United States Postal Service mail truck Tuesday night. 
Louis Van Vo was crossing Porter Street SW around 6:30 p.m. Tuesday in front of Our Lady of La Vang Vietnamese Community Parish when he was hit by the mail truck.
Wow not only are the carriers being shot, and killed, and victimized, but the public at large are in danger because of this mockery called Postal Management. Is anyone safe? The kicker is that if it were not for these websites you would no nothing of any of these autrocities, because they the managers, supervisors, or any other officials never mention them in their so called saftey talks, floor talks, recieving meetings, nothing. Again as I have expressed so many times in the past, my heart goes out to the family of the victim of the car accident, as well as what I imagine to be a tramatized mailman, Who i know did not want to be out there after dark. It’s simple as one person said earlier, we could get it done, and did a very good job before automation,(manually) now we can’t even get the mail to the sub-stations until 8:00 or 9:00 in the morning, before the short staff of clerks can work it up, before the letter carriers can touch it, whose kidding who here? If it ain’t broke than don’t fix it. Not to mention that on top of all this they give you between 1-3 hours overtime. I am doomed before I ever get started. Than the next day some know nothing 204b supervisor wants to know why I didn’t get back until 8:00 p.m. with a couple blocks unserved Huh?
IF THEY DID NOT KNOW SOMETHING LIKE THIS WAS GONNA HAPPEN THEY AR LIVING IN LA LA LAND. AND THE ODDS ARE THE POOR CARRIER NEVER EVEN SAW HIM TILL HE HIT HIM. IF YOUR OUT DELIVERING AFTER DARK AND NO STREET LIGHTS CHECK AND SEE HOW FAR YOUR HEADLIGHTS SHINE OUT. MOST VEHICLES NO MORE THAN TEN FEET. WHAT A JOKE. US OLD TIMERS REMEMBER BEFORE AUTOMATED MAIL WE GOT THE MAIL HOURS EARLIER. NOW IT’S SLOWER.
REMEMBER THE POST OFFICE TECHNOLOGY SAYING
“POSTAL TECHNOLOGY: DELIVERING YESTERDAYS MAIL TOMORROW”
Carriers need to get some balls and roll back to the P.O. before dark, with the undelivered mail, then fill out a 1767 safety and health report that goes to OSHA. EVERY carrier EVERY day until it stops. Innocent people are dying.
We carriers are now starting later we used to start at 7 now it is 9. We don’t want to be out in the dark we feel threatened out there so late. All our customers should be calling complaining to there government officials and postal officials. They the management will not listen to us. Speak up people……….
every carrier should be off the street by 4:00. there is NO excuse for this conbstant mismanagement. hire people, start earlier, common sense. later delivery than that is piss poor service !
Carriers SHOULD be home by dusk. What the heck is going on. USPService? Later, and later delivery. Where’s the service?
