Grenada’s roads demand better road signs, numerous speed limits, increased warnings in areas where roads are so bendy that it makes any forms of ropes or cords a poor second in the number of twists and turns that could be counted.
Better training for learner drivers; passing a driving test and spending a limited time on the roads should not be a licence to become a driving instructor. If the instructors are not polite, patient and respectful to fellow road users how then can their pupils display these characters.
From my experience, the drivers, many of whom are young male, high percentage of these are bus drivers who have no regularly spaced out times. Such freedom encourages behaviour of hooliganism on the road causing danger to other road users. Maybe Bus drivers should randomly be retested especially for road etiquette, actions like double parking thereby forcing other road users to wait unnecessarily and indefinitely could be situations of the past.
All these investigations seem to lead to nowhere since no one seems to notice any improvements from learnt from the results of these investigations.
bus young, male,particularly male drivers are disrespectful, discourteous and impatient, many of these traits should be taught in the home and school.
