    "content": "Indeed, the solution may not lie in roadblocks and bumps. I know the area pretty well. Working together with the Ministry of Roads, the issue will be to sort out the road condition, so that the roads become far much motorable. If you look at the accidents that have taken place, it is lorries and pick-ups that were involved. This is because the people in those areas have been reduced to being ferried using lorries because of the immotorabililty of the roads. Once the roads have been sorted out, the normal passenger vehicles will be attracted to them. Everyone is campaigning for elimination of roadblocks because of other issues, but in terms of the road strips and the bumps, those will be considered within the design of the roads and I will liaise with the Minister for Roads in that respect. On a wider issue, on Tuesday, this House passed two critical Bills. There was the Traffic (Amendment) Bill which deals with fines and the National Transport Safety (Authority) Bill which will look at the wider comprehensive issues of road safety in this country. I believe that within that framework, the roads will be safer across the entire country."
