In response to Kimo Wires: " So what's the problem?"
Two cars meeting at the crest of that hill going 20 mph on unpaved roads is very different from two cars meeting at 40-45mph on pavement. Again, we are ALL liable if any one, resident or not, gets hurt on our roads. If a lawsuit is brought, no one can buy or sell a lot, or get a building permit, until the suit is settled. There are several lots that are owned by what can be considered 'deep pockets', creating incentives for such a lawsuit. Again, you can live miles away from that intersection, and still be liable as a lot owner in Orchidland.
