This year, car accidents killed two people less than a fifth of a mile apart on a problematic stretch of Blossom Hill Road that straddles the borders of Los Gatos and San Jose.Neighbors have been wary of the road’s safety for decades, and say speeding has gotten out of control in recent years. Getting both cities to make changes has been a challenge, and neighbors are urging them to work together to solve the problem before dangerous driving takes another life.“It’s really been a tragic winter here for our neighborhood, our community,” said Blake Thornberry, who has lived off Blossom Hill Road for eight years. “San Jose, Los Gatos, it doesn’t really matter — it’s literally a line across the street. We all live here and share parks and schools together; it shouldn’t make a difference where this imaginary line is drawn.”The stretch in question runs from Camino del Cerro to Camden Avenue, and jurisdiction is split between Los Gatos and San Jose. While Los Gatos police responded to a Ja...
