I drove by the area where the Ramp Fire started and couldn't help but notice the burnt weeds and brush right next to the shoulder.

I guess my question is when will Caltrans start being held responsible to clear weeds and brush next to the roadway? How many more fires in this area will it take? Runway Fire, Ramp Fire, Louisiana Fire, Bluecut Fire and so many along Kenwood, Cleghorn and Sierra I'm not sure anyone knows all the names.

Interesting thought. 

Are you suggesting that CalTrans should clear along both sides of all the road way that they are responsible for each spring and haul away the weeds and brush?
How far from the road way should they clear and could you hazard a guess how much this might cost and how many folks will need to hired?  It's a grand idea but do you really think they will belly up for the thousands of miles of road way they are responsible for?

That made me laugh... Telling Caltrans they need to do more work would be like telling wrightwood, angelwolf, firefightersteve to stop talking pictures! ;D
