We hope you slip off the road, because the state has more to worry about than public safety. That is, the NC DOT is more concerned with making sure, for example:
- animals can cross interstates (See http://www.ncdot.gov/projects/midcurrituckbridge/download/midcurrituck_biologicalassessment_201106.pdf, p. C-52.),
- habitats of formerly unrecognized endangered species are not silted (See http://www.ncdot.gov/projects/i26connector/download/may4minutes.pdf, p. 48.),
- loads and loads of concrete go into overbuilding and smooth roads get repaved (See http://www.johnlocke.org/acrobat/policyReports/major_road_projects_2004.pdf, p/ 5.), and –
- Is any of that slush fund business still going on (See http://www.nccivitas.org/app/uploads/2012/05/guide-budget.pdf, p. 54.)
