    People also need to re-read the driver’s manual. So many people don’t know what side of the median to be on when crossing over 29 from/to Circle K or the Dollar General. People are always on the wrong side and that has caused several wrecks. I’m glad to be moving away from 29!

    Do we need another red light NO or maybe the road fixed NO how about let’s blame it on the rain NO the fact of the matter is almost exactly like most accidents people need to learn to drive and stop doing other things when driving it can wait till later only drive when driving nothing else period !!!!!
