That billboard a definite hazard

It appears that members of Parliament are so accustomed being chauffeured around that they are unaware of the hazards faced by ordinary citizens on the roads.

The goodly senator referred to a particularly obnoxious one approaching Chaguanas on the southbound carriageway which is a definite hazard. It is blindingly bright and at night completely obliterates the highway behind it. It is truly a wonder that there have not been more accidents at night in this area.

The question arises whether authority for such displays is required from the Highways Division or whether the owners of this billboard are subject to the laws of this country as other citizens.
