Pedestrians on rural roads

Here lies the body of Shamus OShea
He died defending his right of way
His way was just
His way was strong
But hes just as dead
As if he had been wrong

Except in this case, he killed someone defending his supposed right of way.

Go and live in Greytown in the Wairarapa you see the locals walk their dogs in the middle of road! No kidding- The worse road in my opinion is in the morning on the way to Woodcote Railway Station in fog on a week day during winter where you regularly see walkers and runners on this road and you think they have 9 lives with speed the suvs go past themto get to their railway connection - Live there as I did for 14 months and you come to the conclusion the town is full of half wits and there is too much in -breeding there as everybody seems related to each other.

Also another sport is to race the train before it gets close to the railway crossing at Woodcote in your suv - The big surprise its not the young hoan but a Lawyer or accountant in his 3 piece suit!

and finally some half wit with council in the late 50s moved the railway station from Greytown town to Woodcote around 10km out in middle of know where as the railway station was causing problems with vehicle congestion.really.in the 50s.

laneyjan is onto it.

It's easier for a runner to hear a car, than vice versa .forget the music and be safe !

Why don't the tossers buy a running machine and stay at home.

if he gets turned into a paraplegic, im going to find it hard to feel sorry for him
