Comments on: Regional agency OKs money for four road projects http://www.ramonasentinel.com/2012/10/01/regional-agency-oks-money-for-four-road-projects/ Ramona's Community Paper Since 1886 Fri, 24 May 2013 00:00:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.3 By: Herve Auch-Roy http://www.ramonasentinel.com/2012/10/01/regional-agency-oks-money-for-four-road-projects/#comment-508668 Herve Auch-Roy Tue, 20 Nov 2012 02:53:22 +0000 http://www.ramonasentinel.com/?p=17884#comment-508668 Leave San Vicente Road alone ! ! ! Its is proven that straightening and widening roads encourages people to drive even faster, and it is also proven that higher speeds make crashes more deadly and injuries worse. If you really want to spend $20 millions of tax payers' money, then spend most of it on Ramona schools, and use the rest at hiring a Police Officer with a radar gun and have him or her patrol San Vicente Road and the Estates to crack down on speeders, on drivers on the phone, on people driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. We've heard so many people promoting "Be Responsible" and "Less Government" for the last presidential election; well, here is your chance to make people responsible and not make them rely on the State's government. Leave San Vicente Road alone. Educate people and make them responsible. Put the money where we need it: EDUCATION. Leave San Vicente Road alone ! ! !
