Mr. Chairman, I do not have a written submission. However, I do have some observations with regard to this department. Mr. Chairman, I purchased a vehicle in August. To date, it has 30,000 miles on it. I wanted to mention that even though we have patrols done by the department, we do not seem to see those vehicles on the highway system. With the conditions of the highways steadily improving, we have also seen a steady increase in the speed limits of the trucks who travel the highway. In most cases, Mr. Chairman, I stop completely when I see a large truck approaching, for my own safety. We do not see many patrols of the highways with regard to safety. What exactly are we spending on highway patrols?
