Draining the sound would not even be the best of ideas. If that ever happened that vehicle would be out of reach perhaps

It is people driving like idiots!

Harbor Sound Road is not dangerous at all! It is one of the better roads we have in Bermuda due to the wideness of it. I take Harrington Sound Road every day to get to work, early mornings, afternoons and late nights. I can’t count the number of times I have nearly been hit by cars either over taking on corners or by just people not staying in their lane!! When I tell them off they look at me like its MY FAULT. Slow down, stay on your side of the road & PUT THE DAMN CELL PHONES DOWN.

I never liked Harrington Sound anyway…lets drain it! We can use my 6hp hurricane generator an two sump pumps from my 50gal fish tank. Best of all, we can BBQ in the Aquarium parking lot…somebody needs to bring the potato salad, I ain’t peeling all them spuds.

Concrete it over then?

Parking and housing are at a premium, could be turned into a very nice housing development with an attached park and ride to town for those that live in the east end!

They should line all the roads in Bermuda with foam rubber bumpers and put selectrix style slot car grooves in all the roads. That plus limiting all cars to 50kph from the factory.

Or we could just be a bit more careful while driving and crack down on reckless, drunk and drivers who use excessive speed.

My thing is that …all of you were given the opportunity to comment on this accident and then it ends up with all of you disrespecting each other .. focus on what happened and stop all the name calling back and forth this person COULD”VE lost their life thank God he survived .. there could’ve been many circumstances as to what have happened in this incident they’re alive and that’s what REALLY matters and STOP focusing on other peoples comments …

Harrington Sound Road, with the exception of the speed mountain, is one of the easiest to navigate 24/7 if paying attention and travelling at an appropriate speed for the conditions.
In addition to being grateful for making it away from the vehicle alive, I pray he is darn grateful for the sacrifices made by ALL to cover increased health and vehicle insurance due to his accident.

Well I had this stuff my Deddy used on our pool. Don’t need no degree to see that would work. Also when it rains a sump pomp would work dickty. And think of all the extra land it would create. Even us grassroots Bermudians could afford. And all goverment can do is talk about payin off some debt.

What happens if after they block and drain it, it gets a hole in it? Also they will have to keep it covered from the rain.

“I would be really careful with your comments” LOL OR WHAT!??!??? Exactly.. you sound just as dumb as “sarcastic” Mildred. Get a life please and thank you. Sorry but didn’t catch any sarcasm…

With a speed limit of 35kph, plus the onus on the driver to drive slower than that of conditions dictate, then there is no such thing as a dangerous road in Bermuda.

What there is is the consistent belief that it is always someone else’s fault.

I do like the “drain the ocean” suggestion though. At least then the Pee Ell Pee won’t have to watch the America’s Cup.

@Autobahn, your quote is unbelieveable. Thousands of people travel this road, daily even at one am in the morning, and do just fine. Stop finding reasons for this accident. There is definitely a few and only the driver could tell us if he wants to be honest. But then again he has learned some valuable lessons, I would think.

I am very happy the driver is ok. Obviously heart broken aswell. Someone need to investigate the amount silt and debris that comes into the road from Beirmans quarry. That exact area is a hot spot for accidents and that is probably the reason. And the extra traffic that is always parked on that narrow stretch on road makes for a dangerous scenario.

Way to go Mildred. Can’t believe there are actually people dumb enough to bite on that. When we drain the Sound I’ll sell Flatts Bridge to “Not So” Happy Girl.

Glad the driver was okay. Do not know if the driver was speeding or not but Harrington Sound Road can be dangerous driving thru and all drivers need to take their time navigating this area. It is not unusual for drivers to drive over the white/yellow lines…

Wow. Here let me help you grasp what you just missed.

Sarcasm is “a sharp, bitter, or cutting expression or remark; a bitter gibe ortaunt.”[1][2] Sarcasm may employambivalence,[3] although sarcasm is not necessarily ironic.[4] ”The distinctive quality of sarcasm is present in the spoken word and manifested chiefly by vocal inflections”.[5] The sarcastic content of a statement will be dependent upon the context in which it appears.[6]

Clarke is not an idiot and he makes a good point. If they blocked flats bridge and the cave he was talking about they could drain it and then accidents like this would never happen. A simple way to fix it but I done expect government will do anything about it.

I think a lot of it has to do with people driving crazily down that road. I was traveling down the same way at around the same time of night on a Saturday recently, and I was appalled at how the vehicle I was in- driving within the legal limit- was taken over by multiple times by multiple mopeds AND cars going at enormous speed. People are just not taking care, and it’s endangering their own lives AND the lives of those around them. Wise up, folks.
