50 shades of our roadways

This gridlock needs to stop.

Driving is  out of control with bumper to bumper  traffic and when you do manage to gain momentum on  the open road  you will most likely be tailgated, nobody on Kauai seems to follow  the simple rule of one car length for each  10 miles per hour...

Everyday new trucks and cars are sold on Kaua'i. Everyday at least one new driver comes of age. Every day more and more visitors arrive. Everyday we  buy more trucks, cars, boats and motorcycles crowding  our few roads.

According  to the Kauai  County website;  Kauai only hosts  235 miles of paved roadways and 40 miles of unpaved roadways

Our Road system has not changed since the 1960's.

It doesn't take an Einstein to know what the priority needs to be  within our local politics.

I would like to propose  a concept I penned, '50 shades of our roadways'
"I scowl with frustration at myself in the mirror" knowing something could be done, but nothing is being done...

No new developments,  no new promotions luring visitors to our over priced paradise,no new  anything until such time that we have the roads to accommodate.
