AIM roads does everything in their power to do ANYTHING but clean the roads Just a bunch of useless twits.

Can't blame the this event on all the times that AIM has failed the motorists on the road by neglecting to do their jobs properly.

exactly

sorry to say but its bad karma to AIM for not taking care of the roads properly

How long are we going to tolerate the lawlessness in this country? Seriously people...

Seriously! Again with attacking AIM for the road conditions. I’m just so confused if you have any idea how road maintenance works. I can promise you that they are doing everything in their power to get stuff done as fast as possible. Even with trucks at the ready they have to get to all the areas. They click a button and the magically the roads are perfect. You’re quick to place blame and judge. Let’s however sit back and wonder how exactly the roads get the way they are. I am a roadside worker and I would love it if you complainers actually tried riding out for a day. You would have a whole different perspective on the work roadside workers actually do. Did you know just in my career alone the normal is for us to lose 1 person a day due to being hit and killed. It’s not the workers it’s the drivers on the roads. Have a little decency and try to see it from their point of view. Do you just do whatever you want at work? No most people have to wait for the big wigs to go the go ahead. In this case it’s the governments. Give your heads a shake. One last thing. Next time you have something stolen from you. Just remember it’s karma for all the bad things you have done.

Seems like we have some candidates on this post to replace AIM when the contract comes up. Hopefully you all bid so we can improve the service. Awesome!

Everyone would prefer they just do the job they are getting paid for.

Example , road in Salmon Arm these bozos maintain…small wash out, size of a gaebage can lid…they drive out and put a cone beside. Every spring they drive back out and put a fresh cone beside it. 4 years later…..it’s still there. 5 trips total when they could of just come on second trip , filled the hole and threw cold patch on it.

Absolutely Idiots

Isn't anyone going to suggest the perpetrator be deported?

[Mike_T]

You know what fellow keyboard warriors instead of complaining and endorsing violence!! how about you go out and invest into some snow plows, equipment and drivers and see how you fair.. I'll be sitting here waiting for you guys all to do a much much better job.
This might be a long wait for this too happen ... so i'll be gracious and give you hmmm 5 years to get it done.
