While traveling today from Keaau, back to Hilo I witnessed the most dangerous road construction conditions I have ever seen in my life. There were lanes that were marked with wavey paint. There were at least 20 orange cones that I counted that had been mowed down accidently by motorists who couldnt figure out where the lanes "were". These cones were then strewn all over the middle of the road. There were lanes that started and then stopped, and I'd have to swerve into another "lane". I had to stop in the center of the road at one point. There was also one policeman and one security person milling around in the middle of the road while all of this was going on... It was around noontime. Did anyone else see this? What on earth was going on? This all was occuring with fairly heavy traffic. I felt like I was on "candid camera" or an episode of "mythbusters" or something.
