Driving attention
To the editor:
Thursday’s article “Baldwin Junction death prompts call for safer highways” stated that the Kansas Highway Patrol said that Ms. Pohl “did not completely stop at the stop sign.”
Now let it be known right up front, I’m very sorry Ms. Pohl was even involved in an accident, let alone one that took her life, but I’ve said it before – and received some very nasty comments – but I’ll say it again. The highways around here aren’t unsafe; it’s the drivers that are! Cell phones, food, drink, not paying attention (for whatever reason).
Get real, people. Stop blaming the highway engineers for your mistakes and start driving again.
