\"\"<\/a>I would be most grateful if you post on your newspaper the weather conditions today, especially for those driving.<\/p>\n

I was out on the road just now and it is horrendous, especially under the Canefield cliff where a falling stone almost smashed my car.<\/p>\n

I also urge the selfish bus drivers that it is ok to slow down sometimes because there are huge puddles of water along that route as well and splashing into it obscures the view of oncoming traffic. That’s not courteous at all.<\/p>\n

We all can see that it is raining and need to be more vigilant especially now that some of those pot holes are filled with water we are unable to identify which is which.<\/p>\n

Thank you kindly,
\nTraffic driver<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I would be most grateful if you post on your newspaper the weather conditions today, especially for those driving.
