Over the last 24 hours, Hampton and North Hampton area residents have made several comments on Facebook and in the comment stream about the tragic accident that happened at Hampton Beach that claimed the lives of two bicyclists.
Here is what Karen Montreuil Higgins had to say on Facebook: "I would think this is not up to anyone no matter their opinions since it's the law that they both can use the roads? How about asking how we can all share the road in a safer way? That might actually increase our chance of getting somewhere on this subject versus dividing us even more with a question like this."
Here is what Jeffrey Morse had to say on Facebook: "What a stupid question, of course they should share the road. There needs to be more respect on both sides when it comes to sharing the road but that isn't material to what happened this weekend."
