To the editor:
With winter road conditions now upon us, this is a gentle reminder to those motorists who will be travelling through 70 Mile House that there are many private and business accesses to Highway 97, and that we have school buses that are turning on and off the highway.
Although the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure is adamant the posted highway speed limit is safe, it really isn’t if a vehicle needs to stop quickly.
This is a request to all to just slow down a bit and give those people ahead of you that extra margin of safety when they need to come off or come on to the highway.
