News Item... Elderly couple escape wreck
Another crash took place Thursday afternoon along a dangerous stretch of road that has seen its share of accidents over the years........The driver of the southbound truck failed to negotiate a curve just north of Alexandria Way. The vehicle came to rest on the vehicles driver side, up against a fence and horse stable.
This leaves me puzzled...I drive this road everyday. I would not consider it "dangerous" at all. I don't understand why anyone would crash on this road. Even if driving it at 60-80kmph it is manageable. Most roads have corners that you may actually have to slow down for (what a concept). In the case of this accident, and most others on this road, I suspect other factors come in to play that are not mentioned in this article.
Don't label a road "dangerous" when it is not.

I suspect the driver is more dangerous than the road. He certainly blew this one.

Agreed. Every road is dangerous if you can't drive. It is not the road
