OPINION Friday, April 12, 2019 www.lakecityreporter.com 4A

OUR OPINION Are we really that bad behind the wheel? ake City has an awful lot of wrecks for a town our size, according to a state study, but that L doesn’t make us complete klutzes, carwise. The reason for our abysmal record is simple. The population here is just 12,000, but during the average work day there may be as many as 40,000 souls in and around the city — most of them in cars. Since the aforementioned study (see story on today’s 3A) compares us to towns much smaller than that, the odds are naturally stacked against us. Factor in two interstate highways and you have a recipe for statistical disaster. City police want a state grant to address driver education and enforcement of traffic laws. Sounds like a good idea. Here’s another one. Unlike the LCPD plan, this one won’t save any lives, but it would help clear our name. The answer? Lessons learned in convalescence Consolidate. Since as a matter of practical fact we are a town of 40,000 or so, let’s make it official and merge city and county government. As noted, it wouldn’t cut down on crashes (let’s hope the police can do that with their grant), but Bob Denny is back it would help considerably on the PR front. Surely our driving record isn’t all that bad for a town of ust when I think everything is lessons life taught me can help you 40,000 — or, depending on how you measure it, perfect, and going my way — when life hits you with bad times: 70,000, which is the entire county population.
