    i crashed on that very hill due to brake failure. that happened because the decline/incline of that hill is more like 45 degrees when it should be 25-35 degrees which vehicles are designed to operate. i guess it will have to take the death of someone important to society before it is addressed.
    that seems to be the dumb-nican way

    The incline of that road between Jimmit and Warner is a hazard. Wish we could give it an extra “detour” to reduce the gradient somewhat – God help you when your brakes fail on that section

    Those precipices are dangerous. Driving carefully is necessary. What was the grass doing on the side of the road or did the driver swerve to the side of the road?
    I hope that their injuries are not life-threatening.
    As far as I can recall Jimmit is far away from Warner. How were they driving in the direction of Jimmit? Were they on their way to Jimmit?

    I pray for their well being and hope that they make a speedy and full recovery.
    Did the accident take place on the steep part of the Warner road? I am very uncomfortable with this road.
