KAY KRITICOS: Yes, have you seen them? It’s definitely needed on those roads.
JOHN MUSCIO: It would be a good idea, but it isn’t a big issue, there’s not that much traffic. There are bigger issues than that they can spend money on.
HASSO POES: Yes I suppose because it’s a main highway and trucks drive on it. It’s important for the safety aspect.
EMMA FOX: Yes because there are a few people on the road who aren't confident overtaking. Passing lanes will make them more confident drivers and be safer for all.
