An automobile drives on the wide road on the left with electrical poles on the right and electrical lines tangled overhead. A sign on the right reads "Live and Let Live, Drive Thoughtfully, Avoid Accidents". Behind it stands a row of small houses. Railroad tracks curve to the left where a bridge stands. More houses stand at the end of the road in the background. Compares to USC-0-1-1-709 taken before street work.
