Please do not speed through Sagle

| January 3, 2023 1:00 AM

Yes, this is another letter about reckless driving on Highway 95 through Sagle. No, I am not going to blame any specific one or several groups of drivers who greatly exceed the 45 mph limit in our town.

However, all who speed through this area are putting themselves and those who live along this section of the highway at grave danger. As with the rest of the area, Sagle has grown quickly; resulting in much more traffic accessing the highway. Everyone is welcome to travel through this area — we know there are very few reasons to stop along this stretch of highway.

But, please do observe the 45 mph limit as you travel through. We want you, and our families and friends to safely enjoy all that northern Idaho has to offer. I am also hopeful that a signal being installed next year at Sagle Road will help the situation.
