(Zvinyorwa zvemudare zvinoratidza kuti pakanga pasina humbowo hwekuti fenzi yakarova mota yaHannah yakanga yaiswa zvisizvo.)
“Ndinoda kuona kuti hapana anoita sewandinomuka naye zuva nezuva nekuti ndiri mubereki wemwana akafa akaremara nefenzi,” akadaro Ames.

Mamwe acho anonzi "Frankenstein fenzi" nekuti iwo fenzi dzakavakwa kubva musanganiswa wezvikamu zvinonzi naAmes zvinogadzira zvikara padivi pemigwagwa yedu. Akawana mamwe masimbi akaiswa kumusoro, kumashure, aine mabhaudhi asipo kana asiri iwo.

Maererano neFederal Highway Administration, zvipingamupinyi zvinotora simba zvine "musoro unovhundutsa" unotsvedza pamusoro pechivharo kana ichirova mota.
Mota yaigona kurovera chipingamupinyi musoro-pamusoro uye musoro wekubata wakapfavisa chipinganidzo ndokuchidzosera kure nemota kusvika mota yamira. Kana mota ikarova njanji pakona, musoro unopwanyawo murindi, uchinonotsa mota kuseri kwenjanji.
Zvikasadaro, gadhi rail rinogona kubaya mota - mureza mutsvuku weAmes, sezvo vagadziri veguardrail vachiyambira pamusoro pekusanganisa zvikamu kudzivirira kukuvara kwakanyanya kana kufa, asi izvo hazvizoitika.

Sekureva kwaAmes, fence iri padyo neBoise Outlet Mall yakaiswa zvisizvo. Iyo guardrail kuCaldwell, mamaira mashoma kumadokero kweInterstate 84, ndeimwe yeakaipisisa maAimers akamboona.
"Dambudziko muIdaho rakakura uye rine njodzi," akadaro Ames. “Ndakatanga kuona masoketi emumwe mugadziri akaiswa njanji yemumwe mugadziri. Ndakaona yakawanda yeTriniti yakavharirwa magumo apo njanji yechipiri yakaiswa yakatsikitsira. Pandakatanga kuona izvi ndikazozviona ndazvionazve, ndakaona kuti izvi ndezvechokwadi.”
Sekureva kwezvinyorwa zveITD, vanhu vana muIdaho vakafa pakati pa2017 na2021 apo mota yakarovera pachiteshi, asi ITD yakati pakanga pasina humbowo hwetsaona kana mishumo yemapurisa yekuti chipinganidzo pachacho ndicho chakonzera kufa kwavo.
“Kana mumwe munhu akanganisa zvakanyanya, isu hatina ongororo, hapana tarisiro yeITD, hapana kudzidziswa kwevanoisa nemakondirakiti. Kukanganisa kunodhura nekuti tiri kutaura nezvemafenzi anodhura,” akadaro Eimers. “Tinofanirwa kuona kuti mudziyo uyu, unotengwa nemitero yehurumende kana kuti federal aid, waiswa zvakanaka. Zvikasadaro, tiri kuba makumi emamiriyoni emadhora gore rega rega uye kukonzera tsaona mumigwagwa.”
Saka Ames akaita sei? Akamanikidza Idaho Dhipatimendi Rezvekutakurwa kuti riongorore nzvimbo dzese dzefenzi mudunhu. ITD yakaratidza kuti yakanga ichiteerera.
Vanoona nezvekufambiswa kwemashoko musangano reITD, VaJohn Tomlinson, vanoti pari zvino bazi iri riri kuita ongororo yenyika yose yehurongwa hwefencing.
"Tinoda kuve nechokwadi kuti akaiswa nemazvo, kuti akachengeteka," Tomlinson akadaro. “Pese panokanganisika kumagumo kweguardrail, tinoongorora kuti akaiswa zvakanaka here, uye kana paine kukuvara, tinogadzirisa ipapo. Tinoda kuzvigadzirisa. Tinoda kuona kuti dzakachengetedzwa nemazvo. "
Muna Gumiguru, vashandi vakatanga kuchera zvakadzika kupfuura zviuru gumi zvekuchengetedza magumo akapararira anopfuura mamaira mazana mapfumbamwe ezvivharo mumigwagwa yenyika, akadaro.

Kuongorora zviuru zvefenzi uye kukwanisa kudzigadzirisa kunoda nguva nemari. ITD haizoziva mutengo wekugadzirisa kudzamara hesiti yapera.
"Tinofanirwa kuona kuti tine mari yakakwana yeizvi," Tomlinson akadaro. "Asi zvakakosha - kana ikauraya kana kukuvadza vanhu zvakanyanya, tinoita shanduko dzese dzinodiwa."
Tomlinson akawedzera kuti ivo vanoziva nezvemamwe "matanho ebazi" avanoda "kugadzirisa" uye vacharamba vachiongorora nzira yese yenyika mumwedzi iri kuuya.
Vatizve havazive kuti marapirwo ekupedzisira aya haaizoshanda zvakanaka panguva yenjodzi iyi.
