o.k. i know you cant be everywhere at once with those fancy new de-icer trucks BUT , what the heck happend this morning.it was a mess out there by 7:00 a.m. and no truck was seen till 11:30 in our area where there were 3 reported accidents one involving airlift and a school bus.i knew at 1:00 a.m. that it was going to be icey.i know your guys work hard but they cant unless you tell them to.i requested a sand truck at 7:30 and was told it would be a while and a hour later just down the road a car hit ice and slid into a school bus,hmmm preventable, i say yes.send one of the old sand trucks till you can get out with the new fancy one.and one thing that might help would be get an earlier start, both the managment and the road crews,if you look out and see stars in the morning and its december go ahead and send out the trucks , the life you save could be one you know.i would rather spend my taxes on a little extra sand than any other outcome.once again the guys driving the trucks are doing fine but the one who sent them must have slept in this morning.
