Who said that any of the above was "safe"? I think it only a matter of time before someone gets severely injured or even killed while trying to cross at those locations. The speed limit for cars on 27/441 is 45 MPH and I know I have seen vehicles travelling much faster than that. I don't have any proof, but anyone that has been there knows it's the truth.
