Everyone’s in a hurry . Bermudians Love to Drink the devil’s juice. Too much talking, texting, or micing while driving. The thievish bunch need their fingers broken and to find a job .
They’d catch a lot more DUI’s if they did did random breath testing on a Friday night going out of town from 11PM to 3AM too! The people of Bermuda suggest this time and time again but this has still never taken place.
@disgusted – - just to shed a little light on your comment/observation – - Random breath testing can’t just happen – - laws have to be changed, corrected and re-checked so that you, the Bermuda public, do not use your rights as citzens – - it will happen, im sure, but it takes time if the government is going to get it right – - just my 2 cents
Your first thre sentences are spot on there Sheriff.
Your last sentence, well thats open. Tell that to the construction guys that just got layed off and the ones yet to come. But…your on track. Wre in deep crap.
Road, nothing has to be changed. The laws are already on/in the books.
Well yes, if you want to stop everybody driving at this area in time you better have reasonable suspicion that an offence has been committed. The again, it’s nopt like stopping ’5′oclock’ traffic. The facts speak for themselves.
Its a regular demo derby out there. Thats one way to increase car sales, boost insurane rares & help the economy.
Can you just imagine if Bermudians had to deal with ice on the roads! We must be some of the worst drivers in the world.
That’s just too many! Only luck no was was killed! SMDH
