Did ya know there is almost at least one accident on Century Drive every day during the winter when road conditions are not dry pavement. Almost all are caused by excessive speed. We talked with the Bend Fire Dept. who responds to these incidents to do some simple math on how much time is saved by going faster than conditions permit.
