I'm sure that truck driver is living in his own sort of hellish thoughts about what happened.
I think Doc brings up some very good points about bigger signage (I say lighted as well) and notices about fines. I also agree they need to make sure if they make a mistake they have the ability to turn around in multiple areas to include the final warning.
Anyway, this wasn't posted against truckers, one of my relatives is one. But I do believe this is the benefit of the truckers as well.
There are signs warnings both Truckers and cyclist about the conditions on 129 at the Dragon. Both pay the taxes that support the road. Both can decide if they wish to use it.
I am wth truck drivers like Steve and Doc on this. 129 is their road too!
Question 1) Would cyclist and sports enthusiasts pay for the maintanence of the road without the tax support of the trucking industry?
Question 2) Should this discussion not be in the political section?
WHEIO! WHEIO! CENSOR ALERT!
