Big Rigs banned from the Dragon
#3
I'd say it's about time some teeth was put into it rather than just posting warning signs.

There is no way any big truck should be attempting to travel those short, heavily banked curves.

Many of the curves are some what blind without guard rails (not that they would help a motorcycle),

so when rounding a curve if there is an unexpected obstacle in your lane you don't have any good escape options,

either take the uphill mountain side or the down hill "cliff" side, both bad choices even if you could alter your committed

angle of banking and path mid curve.
