We need this on 67 as well as center divides. The speeding drivers are killing drivers going the speed limit.

They do, and in my book that is a good thing. Did it ever occur to you that some of these officers live here? They do, and in my book that is a good thing.

But, perhaps you're one of the 45/50 crowd, and if you are here's hoping the law takes you down. In answer to your question, if you can't afford a ticket the answer should be obvious doncha think?

It is not uncommon to see 3 different law enforcement vehicles within a 5 minute period. Is it because they think we can afford to pay the tickets? If they set up a radar trap on the 67 it would help slow down the traffic knowing that a speeding ticket may be in store.

They are slowly cutting down our beautiful trees along Main Street, but they never widen the road. This street could be called Santa Maria Boulevard, or something, and have turn lanes at each intersection. A good example of this is in S.D. Country Estates if anybody wants to go see. There is plenty of room out there now, and if the Chamber of Commerce would just back it, it would solve a lot of problems.

Because of senseless acts of someone in a hurry or just trying to show off for his friend many have died because he didn't do what was right... And at that age even the 5 yr old would have known it was wrong.....

In return for him wanting to get where he was going as fast as he could be killed himself and 4 others I knew one of the people injured and they are doing great under the circumstances. And the woman in the truck has died from her injuries as well. Shame to all who think it was the fog. It was the stupidity of the truck driver showing off and trying to go fast. He knew better and to many people paid the consequences for it.

It seems people coming up the hill want to speed up now that the road heads down. They hit about 70mph by the time they pass Woodson Road, and then they want to use the narrowing lanes to pass in! I now have a habit of staying in the right lane and putting on my brakes, so those jerks can pass me easily, and they do fly right by. The road widens considerably here but they just use that as an excuse to go even faster. The sign says "controlled by radar" or whatever, but I have never seen anybody get a ticket on this stretch of highway, so further widening will not help at all.

You can easily pull a G or more and can loose control even if you are familiar with that section. In a wet condition one is asking for trouble. Stay alive, drive 55. My sincere condolences to the victim's families...a very sad situation. That curve is a nasty one if one is speeding.
