    All those monies that has been bad spent lately could have gone into the infrastructure that could have minimize those incidences. But such behaviour will continue, because no one has been held accountable for tax payers monies. Just hope that no one got injured in the process

    Looked a next nice lawsuit.

    Since then refused to properly build and maintain roads sue them back side to get some of your money back!

    As a matter a fact make it a class action lawsuit. Everybody gets a piece of this action with these nonsense roads

    If that is a private road to someone s residence then it is up to the resident to fix and maintain the road not the Government. I stand to be corrected.
