The locals are dangerous

There is a 3 mile bit of road that comes out of Telluride that we call The Spur. Who knows why - it's just been called that for a long time. It's the only way to get out of town. A very safe looking bit of road, no curves, no cliffs, but it's the most dangerous bit of road in this county. We had another accident there just the other day. The guy was air lifted out of town and I hear he is going to be fine. Now you would think all of these accidents are from tourists gauking at the really beautiful sights - not paying attention. But ... nope.... locals are mostly the ones loosing control of their cars. Why is that. It's one of life's mysteries, but be careful while you're driving into town. The locals are dangerous.
