Traffic Hazard On First Street We would like to see any member of the Oregon Highway commission. Oregon Police force or Nyssa City Police who can drive into the lane of traffic on Main street from South First without having to hesitate or break a traffic law. The time for any attempt at such a traffic feat would have to be between the hours of 10 a m. and 5 p m. on a week day. It’s almost as difficult to enter the line of traffic from any other side street, but the underpass and its high cement wall multiply traffic hazards on South First. Spuds are being hauled to market now and will be followed by sugar beets and other farm pro ducts which are all of prime importance to the econ omy of the community and the nation. Most of the farm truck drivers are careful and courteous, but a few tourists and local residents, eager to get through town in record time, disregard the speed limit and other safety factors, especially when they come through the underpass. Fact is \fce just don’t like to write bloody accident stories.
