Where are the sturdily built and well positioned guard rails that would help prevent such accidents and possible loss of life?
All steep grades and hairpin turns should be crowned and banked for drainage, with proper gutter systems in place to carry the run off safely away from the road and any other place where water can cause damage to property or undermine other roadways below.
Our roads are constructed as cheaply as possible. Road longevity and safety are not even considered. It's all about the green back dollar folks. Let's face it, even though most of us would prefer to think otherwise, ours is a third world country where life is cheap and politicians do things only when they HAVE to. They don't want to spend "THEIR" budget on uninteresting things like good solid infrastructure. They want to spend "THEIR" money on things they can puff up their chests and crow about.
My advice, stay home when it rains and definitely don't go down Joe's Hill Road, the Elevator or any other steep road. Wait for the weather to pass and for the roads to dry. They weren't designed to be used in rainy weather, and that's a fact.
