the barrier wall in the median is obviously not high enough... traffic speed is much higher than the posted speed limit

Police allow speeds up to 75 mph way too much traffic for that. Need speed and lane restrictions for trucks. And I’m a truck driver saying that

Because no one obeys the speed limit we was traveling I-70 yesterday morning and speed says 60 and if you go 60 you will get hit so people was going 70 - 80 through the stretch that says 60 . Tractor trailers like to cut people off like they did us yesterday. They think they rule the road .

That stretch from stadium too Clark lane exit is very dangerous and deadly. People go too fast, and don't let people on. There is no room to just drive!

Too many dumb drivers that have no clue whose turn it is to go mixed with college kids that just got here for school and semi trucks that are just passing through. Add all of those together and what do you get? Decent amount of wrecks that's what.

So sounds like the people are the problem not the highway.

My son fell off the overpass by Midway and nearly lost his life back in January of 23. It's a miracle that he's not dead or paralyzed

The road is fine. People are the problem. Using phones and not paying attention to the road and the traffic is what is dangerous.

It's not the roads. It's uninformed and distracted motorists.

I see a lot of drivers who shouldn't be driving. It's like they are in their own little world.

The road dangerous? No. People texting, speeding, and general inattentiveness? That's the danger.

I'd like to see how many of the democratic votes came from bots

Democrats are insisting on concessions related to health care policy (specifically extending Affordable Care Act health insurance subsidies) to reopen the government. Republicans argue for a "clean" funding bill without these policy changes.

It's beautiful. Trump is getting rid of the fake workers Biden hired, and AOC will Primary Schumer. Winner winner, chicken dinner.

As every 8th grade Civics student knows, it takes 60 votes to end the Schumer Shutdown. Since we only have 53 Republicans, we must have a handful of Senate Democrats

Trump is ending wars, getting hostages released, after nearly 2 years, while Schumer is holding the US taxpayers hostage, for free medical care for illegal aliens, while our own citizens have to pay for medical care.

The democrats want to add to the budget. It’s a CR, you don’t add to it. You open the government and then negotiate the budget.

Wish I could vote for both. This shutdown is a game both sides are playing. I want to roll up a newspaper and smack 'em both.

Republicans could easily say yes to extending subsidies for Americans and no to the other provisions. If Dems say “no” then it’s on them. Not much compromising is going on.

I don't believe that the ACA causes a significant amount of money to go to healthcare for illegal immigrants
