    This is ridiculous there’s a wreck if not more than one every wk on this road. They speed passing around curves, hills, no too mention schools on this road aswell. You never see anyone patrolling that area. I avoid this road when possible one day it’s going to be someone hitting a bus or something worse. We pay too many taxes for this road not to get patrolled more, it’s terrible.

    Me and my family were almost involved in this… my husband jerked the car out of the way just in time and I called 911 immediately… was very scary…
