The irony of the whole speed limit debate is that the proponents only have one or two cases over a 40 year period to even present as "evidence." It is laughable. I'll even concede them to you and say YES you are 100% right, whatever you want to prove with those cases, bravo, well done. So where does that leave us? 40 years with 2 incidents that YOU say COULD have been prevented by a speed limit? Hysterical, that's what it is. We should base a law on this? If the senate doesn't see right through this they may need a vacation. So far it has been a colossal waste of their time when they could have been debating more important real issues. Not too mention we probably set ourselves back years in terms of addressing the real needs of lake winni. It will be a while before they take up any new initiatives I'm sure. So what are we left with? A potential 45/25 law that will have little or no affect on safety on the lake. Then what? Does winnfabs cry wolf again? The legislature will then see the organization for what it is, an organization with an agenda. They will ignore it and those of us that are REALLY concerned with safety will have no voice. Thanks winnfabs, great work!
