Island drivers need to slow down, watch speeds

Published 1:30 am Wednesday, October 23, 2019

Twenty-five miles per hour, 40 miles per hour and 50 miles per hour: These are maximum, not minimum, miles per hour. As I drive on my errands and enjoying the beauty of this island — especially the gorgeous fall colors today — I would like to encourage my fellow islanders to slow down. If you need to catch a ferry, leave five minutes earlier. Make way for bicyclists, watch out for deer, turn off your cell phone, enjoy life and please slow down!
