I thought at the time, a great idea,and wrote the next day on this web site "but it has to get past the RTA."
Later I was told by someone involved, that the RTA wasn't that ethusiastic about the whole idea.
A company wants to pay for the installation of flashing lights at school zones at no cost to the RTA, and they don't like that idea????
No it's a better idea to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on flashing lights, when that money could be better spent on Police, Hostpitals etc.
As Alan Jones once said "It's easy spending someones elses money"
