Title- Gran Paradiso residents
seek answers about a dry pond
The
residents had an issue with the pond that has been dried up in their community.
The dried up pond has attracted unwanted animals to come into the community.
The
issue with the dried up pond comes from the fact that the district and the
property owners have control over the land. No one acted right away so the
problem would continue to grow as more animals came to the area.
The
people who have the problem are the residents of the West Villages community.
2. Allegiant
flight from Fort Wayne, Indiana, to Punta Gorda delayed over 14 hours
Passengers
on an Allegiant flight were delayed over 14 hours. The airline says that the
issue was a combination of a weather issue and a technical issue.
The
people who had the problem were the passengers and the airline company.
3. Umpires
have messages for parents "you're out."
Parents
are ruining the baseball games for the kids. The parents are yelling at the
umpires and making the games more stressful for everyone. The umpires do not
get paid much and should not have to deal with the rude parents.
The
people who have the problem are the umpires and the people who watch the game.
4. Texting-driving
should become primary offense
Texting
and driving has been an issue for drivers. Florida’s law has made texting and
driving a secondary offense so officers can only pull over a driver if they are
breaking another law. We need to make driving safer so making it a primary
offense could possibly help solve the problem.
The people who have the
problem are drivers on the road, because they are being put in danger.
5. Toll roads could ease
clogged interstates
There
is a buildup of traffic in the central part of Florida. The proposed idea for
toll roads could help make Florida highways less crowded and safer. The current
road situation would be a hazard for future hurricane evacuation routes.
The
people who have the problem are Florida residents and potential Florida guests.
Allyson,
ReplyDeleteYour 4th opportunity was one I used for assignment 6 as a regulatory or legal change. Florida has just passed an amendment to their 2013 texting while driving ban to move texting while driving a primary offense. I think it is a great opportunity to create new technologies that can make drivers safer on the road. This is the perfect time to introduce an effective hands-free texting service because drivers will be more inclined to adopt due to the new law.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteIndeed, as you said text and driving will become a primary offense in Florida after July 1st, and tickets will start on $30 and will increase as you do it in school or work zones. There is an opportunity for increasing sales in technology. For example, Tesla, the self-driven car is going to be more convenient than old cars regarding this situation. This is good, because I think the people that are put in danger, the most, for people who text and drive are pedestrians.
