speaking of Tax Dollars at work, anyone drive I-94 between Benton harbor and Kalamazoo?
they're putting up 3 strand high-tensile wire along the median to keep cars from crossing into on coming traffic. The issue is that now emergency vehicles can only turn around in designated areas, emergency workers can't cross the median on foot as easily. And as in a recent case, a car that would NOT have gone into on coming traffic nor cause major damage to itself (experts say) rolled over multiple times after bouncing off these wires and losing control.
There is a 5 mile stretch near Benton Harbor that in the last few years cost over a Million dollars to maintain due to sheared posts and rusty/broken wires.
Woohoo :thumbup:
