Because it makes you feel uncomfortable I will blame everyone for Caymanians bad driving. OK Jamaicans are almost as bad.
If only caymanians could indicate and drive properly the roads would be much safer. Their driving is as bad as their urgency to apply for a job.
It’s Jamaicans and caymanians.
These poles need to be anchored to the ground much better. At the moment these poles are free to wander around, jumping in front of innocent idiots in cars.
The photos show the TOP part of a telephone pole, severed off and laying in the road. How did a car striking a telephone pole do that?
BracFan: Haven’t you heard?????? Poo poo occurs!
hope the pole is ok….
Caymanian drivers love to hit poles, rock walls and the back of cars. Even police cars and ambulances are not safe.
Your comment should say “Cayman’s drivers ….”. There is no nationality preference.
10:27 am and 9:17 amp ; Geez….. How about just “drivers”?
It ain’t the Canadians…
Jamaican for sure. If it was a honda then I would say caymanian.
From Bodden Town heading East has no police presence on the roads. It is a daily racetrack and death trap for motorist.
From Bodden Town heading west is supposed to have police presence but it too is a daily racetrack and no where worse than the trucks speeding through Bodden Town itself and passing Mostyn’s gas station in an incredibly dangerous manner.
Over the years CUC must have lots more than a thousand light poles to our clueless drivers.
Over a thousand? Nah-h-h-h.
Is CUC being compensated for the cost of replacing the pole? Or is it us the public that are bearing the cost?
They should not allow those self-driving foreign cars onto the island. They are always driving into light poles and street signs, especially on straight roads.
They have not been calibrated to drive on the correct aka left side of the road!
