It should be a personal choice. But no public dollars should be spent on brain injured people who chose not to wear helmets.

What happened to my body my choice? Does the life in question only apply to certain individuals?

The 97 project will be a huge improvement when finished. However the new roundabout project in Sisters is terrible! Instead of having two lanes coming into Sisters with the right only turn lane, we now have everyone merging into one lane before the roundabout. The traffic flow is 10 times worse!

Your question is a leading question? Most folks don'te embrace change easily. In the long-term it will help the North side be safe and navigable for the next several years; especially as Costco & Fred Meyer join the mix. Everyone knows congestion and traffic in Bend is exploding - suck it up.

I work at Lowe’s part time and I straight up got lost the first time. I’ve been so used to just going straight down 97 and before I knew it I was on my way to Redmond. To not be late for work I had to pull a u-turn and I’ve seen lots of people doing the same which is unsafe. There is no signage

They MOST DEFINITELY should have taken into account that many drivers want to get to the shopping center, and they cannot. Going 3 miles into Redmond is NOT the answer! I totally understand cars making dangerous turnarounds to get around this failure to account for an exit at the shopping center!!

Whoever designs these highway changes needs to go back to school. The bypass in Redmond was stupid too. And I really dislike the round abouts everywhere, especially the area coming from Sisters to Bend. I do like the artwork, but you only get a few seconds to enjoy it or have an accident.

bend already has a costco. the number of businesses that became instantly inaccessible by adding 6 miles of additional, unnecessary drive time is both disturbing and concerning. not to mention the amount of u-turning happening on a busy highway as a result.

My family all ride. I want them safe, I want the best examples for the children in my family as they grow up riding. I almost lost my brother and his gf to an accident 10 yrs ago. In hospital and rehab for a few months. Their lives were saved by his fast response and their helmets.
ReplyIt should be a no brainier people. Duh .
ReplyIt's self explanatory. Why risk becoming disabled and burdening your family for a lifetime?
ReplyI. Think. To. Make. People stay safe. All the. Time why’ll riding
ReplyThe survival rate is higher, if in an accident, with a helmet on. Drivers are distracted, and motorcycles aren't on their radar. A helmet may be the one chance a motorcycle list has to survive, and sustain less of a permanent brain injury.
