You need a copy editor or the rain has confused your computer.
"...and Robles Avenue at Oak Grove Avenue..."
There is no Robles Av in Menlo Park, there is one in Woodside.
If you meant Roble, please be advised that Oak Grove and Roble are parallel to each other and do not intersect. You really should know that as in years past the newspaper was located on Roble.

@ Whatever: Sorry, Roble is where Cooks Seaford is located and it is in Menlo Park. I didn't see any Robles in the article.

@whatever - the rain has confused your brain. Why be so critical about updates that are written on the fly (and happen to also be accurate):
A few "minor hotspots" along El Camino Real at Ravenswood and Roble avenues.
If you read correctly - the El Camino has some hotspots - 2 of them are 1) ravenswood and 2) roble ave.

@whatever the only reference in the article to Roble Ave is: " along El Camino Real at Ravenswood and Roble avenues," That is a perfectly accurate description of 2 existing intersections along ECR (check Google maps)
Even if your assertion had been correct why the unfriendly criticism. Lighten up, to get all the latest up-dates on line under current conditions is not an easy task and small errors could be forgiven

Whatever was correct. We erred in the original reporting and corrected it. Thanks for calling this to our attention.

It's fine if "whatever" was correct, but they didn't have to approach the notification of the error with such vitriol.
