Maybe drivers shouldn't be driving on these roads at 15-20 mph? Maybe police should start ticketing drivers going too slow, no tail lights, no brake lights, not signaling, texting while driving, not wearing seat belts, 2 lug nuts on a wheel and the list goes on. Speed kills, especially with so many unsafe drivers on this island.
The hotel was taking it in the shorts with the food and beverage staff. If an all inclusive guest pays the hotel one price per day including all taxes, lodging, gratuities upon check in, they have completed their payment. So every time this guest goes to the pool bar and has a drink, there should be NO added tip. It was paid up front at checkin. In the past, every time a guest ordered a drink or food, a gratuity was added to the bill. The hotel would then be coming out of their own pocket to cover all the additional tipping that was going on the checks that the customer didn't have to pay. Sour grapes Union, get over it and be thankful the workers still have jobs.
Does the government have an Air Quality Department? The operator should be fined 10 grand a day for allowing this to continue and pollute the air and causing health issues for the public not to mention the smoke damage to a persons personal possessions in their home. Maybe they would take this issue a little more seriously if the government got into their pocket.

The insurance is already high, not for speeding but because so many drivers don't bother or can't afford it. Too many uninsured here.
