Semi Trucks Damage Pecos Roads and Neighborhoods

Semi Trucks Damage Pecos Roads and Neighborhoods

Quote:
Big trucks pounding the pavement are causing problems in Pecos.

The increase in oil field activity is prompting workers to take their big trucks home with them, and the small neighborhood roads just can't hold that weight.

The repairs will cost Pecos about $20 million.

Uh Uh....maybe we should outlaw internet access to Bobby Joe. That kid might download plans to assemble/build a thermo-nuclear device.

We're really taking a big chance here ya know?

"Sometimes I think," Pecos Resident Jesse Acosta, said, "what if the kids are playing soccer ball in the yard and they kick a ball into the streets and here comes a big semi truck and what if he breaks too late and causes an accident and run over the kid?"

"We've been fortunate, we've had no loss of life or injury due to a truck in our city limits," Alligood said. "However, we're pushing fate by letting it continue."

Dang. They'll have to put a big ol' bubble around the place. After all, rain, the sun and other things damage roads, too. Can't be having THAT on our conscience!
