Holmes county roads unsafe at any speed

To the Editor,

How many deaths will it take for Holmes County to take care of its roads??

Sandpath Road is one of the heaviest traveled dirt roads in the county, between the washboards and sand and ruts, it’s the most dangerous.

Numerous accidents have occurred and in places there isn’t enough room for two cars to pass at the same time. The road graders hardly touch the dirt and drive so fast the wheels cavitate in the ruts and the blade puts ruts right back in the road.

I know there is a budget crunch, but so much money is wasted on other unnecessary things you would think we could afford to get the ground up black top from the state roads and put it on our roads like Washington county did.

Thank you for letting me sound off.
