Roads Quotations | Page 4

It's a trip because the roads are all blocked off and you have to be in a private car. It's the only way into West Hollywood. There are triple checkpoints. Not that I'm into the whole star thing. But when you're new to it, it is pretty neat seeing all these people for the first time. The more you're in it, the less affected you are, the less you care who's who.

It's a big disappointment. Although there's nothing legally we can do, we've got to move on and try to get the best deal we can with the roads department.

It was a team effort and the roads were opened very quickly.

It is reconstruction where the pledges are highly inadequate because reconstruction would require billions of dollars... for houses, infrastructure, hospitals, schools, colleges and police stations, roads and bridges,

It's a legitimate fear that communities will change. Of course, the roads are coming regardless because the area is growing and changing.

It's not just simply looking at roads in isolation from airlines and rail. There has to be a comprehensive transportation approach and that's the opposite of what we've seen from the Liberals.

Ford has the right blend of expertise necessary to lead this research. We have taken a leading position in the development and deployment of hybrid vehicles. We also have put more than 1.5 million flex-fuel vehicles on America?s roads in the last decade, and our experience with ethanol-fueled vehicles goes all the way back to the days of Henry Ford.

It started in the Northern Valley area and then there were calls from Charlottesville, Hampton Roads and Richmond.

It may look like the worst is over, and in many ways it is, but the roads will be very slippery and very dangerous, particularly during the night,

It's going well, so far we're going steady, driving at a safe speed and things are going pretty much according to plan. We're aiming to be somewhere in the top six and we're on target. We had a small spin at a junction on the first stage that gave away a few seconds but apart from that we've had no issues. The roads are in good condition, there's a good solid base and I'm enjoying my driving.

It's good to have a rifle range like this, because a lot of people go out into the woods and shoot and not everybody's conscious of where they're firing at, where the roads are and things like that.

It's pretty amazing when Chris starts talking to people who've been all over the world and they start comparing us to the Tour de France. If you've ever seen video of people lining the roads in the Tour de France, it's a pretty amazing testament.

It's our position that the settlement says we have to open the roads concurrently. And, we would have to follow the proper process in order to change that, which could involve going back in front of a judge to amend the settlement.

Crashes in work zones are causing too many deaths and injuries of Missouri workers who are simply doing their job trying to make our roads better and safer. There is no excuse for not slowing down in construction work zones that are clearly marked, many times miles in advance. That is why we must make a concentrated effort to get drivers to slow down.

Do it directly to the population. We have to establish bypass roads to the Palestinian population that bypass a terrorist government.

The number one priority for citizens of Winnipeg is roads and bridges,

That is a problem that all toll roads in this country share.

It's much easier for a middle class Indian entrepreneur to start up a computer company than it is for an Indian company to build roads and transportation systems suitable for a population that is getting wealthier and demanding more basic services.

It's common on the roads in this area to have a lot of settlement areas that we have to keep an eye on.

It's clear that there will always be roads in national forests. But it is a welcome change that the forest service has put the brakes on what has been a massive road-building system. Any new road building will have to meet rigorous testing and that's a positive change.

It seemed like all roads kind of led to New York. I think it was always the Mets' ball to lose.

I've heard all kinds of stories since then. The snow got deeper. It got colder. It was a terrific ballgame, but to play it under those conditions was incredible. The most dramatic thing, however, was driving home the next day. Driving on those icy roads and dodging people who were trying to pass you.

I've found mine an enormous benefit in Edinburgh. It handles speed bumps and potholes very well and they're less likely to damage the car. The roads being as they are, everyone should get a four-wheel drive. Even if the roads improved, there's still no reason why people shouldn't use 4x4s in Edinburgh. They take up no more road space and most run on diesel, so they're more economical. I really can't see a problem.

No meaningful development can take place without a good road network in southern Sudan. The policy of the government is to construct modern roads that will connect various parts of southern Sudan internally, and link them as well to the outside world.

never reads books and I just started reading one because I had nothing else to do. I have problems going outside because if I get too overheated I pass out. Once the roads were cleaned out you couldn't drive because there wasn't gas. Once they did open up the gas stations the lines were a mile long. I siphoned gas out of the lawn mower into the car so I could go to the store and try to get stuff.

It was paved as part of an incremental project to make the commercial properties more attractive for development. In this coming fiscal year we are also going to pave Lafayette and Gustine roads in the same area for that same purpose.

It took hundreds of years for these woods to grow, and they leveled it in a week. It's gone. After they build new houses here, they'll have to widen the roads and put up gas stations, and pretty soon the whole area will just be a big strip. Eventually there won't be a nice spot left anywhere. I wonder if you can refuse to inherit the world.

It took us 3 1/2 hours by boat to get to some of those places, with no place to stay, no roads to get there. It's been like that since Day 1, and it hasn't improved much.

It will take nothing less than a domestic Marshall Plan to rebuild our roads and utilities and homes and businesses.

I?m thrilled. All roads lead to a higher share price.

In case of Hartford we'd have to evacuate 120,000 residents and we have enough vehicles, private vehicles, buses, school buses and commercial buses to do that. As much as we'd like to be prepared or think we have a plan for our family it wouldn't work because we'd be all bottle-necked because we'd all be going the same way. There's not enough roads out of the city.

In 1960, ... the Cape looked like an oil field, with towering structures, dirt, and asphalt roads newly carved out of the palmetto scrub. The alligators were reluctantly surrendering to the onslaught of newly arrived civilization. If you didn't have a good sense of direction, you were in trouble.

I moved away when I was young, when I was about 19. I'd literally come from an area with dirt roads and stuff like that, right to the centre of a city of about five million people. It's been great. I'm based in New York, and every day, it's amazing.

In an effort to reduce the number of deaths on our roads we want to educate the South Africans through our children.

If there is a safety message to be echoed, this accident shows just how dangerous rural roads and highway can be. We see lots of vehicle crashes in our rural areas. When a crash occurs the kinetic energy from the crash gets transferred to the occupants in the vehicles, sometimes with fatal consequences.

GPS is very good for exploring. When you go out, you can be assured you can find your way back. But you must have reliable maps, or you might encounter some trouble Sometimes GPS gives wrong directions, because the map may be obsolete, or the roads have been altered. If the driver does not pay attention, it can lead to disaster.

You can see it, you can taste it. It hits you right in the face. You get behind an old school bus and you know it.

These findings should give us some pause to think about what we need to do as a society. Restrictions on tailpipe emissions have gotten tighter, but there are more trucks and cars on the roads and people are driving farther. This study may cause us to reflect on how we use our cars, what cars we drive and whether we can do anything to make tailpipe emissions from all vehicles less harmful to health.
