Highway of Death.

Authored by: Anonymous onSaturday, August 12 2006 @ 02:15 MDT

When I lived in BC I noticed a lot of road construction being done to reduce curves. Princeton, a small town along Highway 3 had a bridge removed and a new one installed at a cost of about 5 million dollars. All to keep the big trucks from having to slow down.

There is no logical reason to have to do more than 90kph through the mountains, but people do. There are not enough stops along the way, and people tend to think of the desintation over the trip and want to have the driving over and done with as soon as possible.

Myself? I tend to take a few more hours than most people. A few hours is not worth my life.
