There is NO excuse for drivers to be stranded for hours, common sense should have dictated that so much snow was going to produce a problem on the roads. Gov Doyle and the state troopers failed those people when they needed them the most. Just does not make any sense in this day and age, not like we are using horse and buggies anymore. The cameras should have been up and running and if the Governor had not taken from the transportation fund there would have been sufficent funds to run the cameras. No legitimate excuse for this to have happened. Thank heaven for the DNR, they were outstanding, going out on snowmobiles to help as many as they could.
