What began as an attempted traffic stop, turned into an intense high-speed chase and manhunt in Neepawa over the long weekend. Initial reports to the Banner & Press suggest that the incident began about 10 kilometres east of Neepawa, on Highway 16, in the early afternoon of Sunday, Aug. 6.

The past two columns have been about highways within towns. The issue I have with Highways, or Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure, is that they have a hugely difficult process for doing something as simple as changing speed zones. The particular question I have is: Why have they not lowered the speed limit east of Neepawa on Hwy. 16 at the eastern boundary of the town limits? The amount of traffic on that piece of road is going to lead to accidents and possibly death that could well be at a reduced risk of happening if the speed limit was lowered. Currently it is 100 km/hr and that is senseless.
