Predator Ridge Turnoff

Locals know you don't turn left there in the summertime - that's the cautionary word from Councillor Nicol on the Predator Ridge turnoff. Two letters, one from a relative of the Kelowna woman who was killed last month turning onto Highway 97 from Predator Ridge, have prompted Vernon city council to call on BC's transportation minister to visit the area. Councillor Nicol says the ``volume of accidents'' in that area show that it is a matter of immediate concern.Nicol says there have been 16 deaths there since 1963 and 73 accidents over the last five years alone.
