‘Good idea, Phil’

| 02 Oct 2012 | 10:57

    After reading Phillip Smith’s letter to the editor about rumble strips, I have to agree that installing rumble strips in the middle of these two-lane roads would definitely save lives.
    Many times I would be traveling and would notice cars close to the center line or over the line. As they would pass me I would see someone talking on the phone, or with their head down, possibly texting.
    With all the warnings about distracted driving out there, people will keep doing it anyway.
    Why not put these strips in the road? So as Phil says, it definitely would create much needed jobs in this economy, but more importantly it would save lives.
    Good idea, Phil.
