Terrible. Probably really dark at night. Should be some other warning besides the one sign.

You are a total nutcase, completely deranged, delusional, paranoid. Your thought process is all fucked up. Your information train is jammed, man!

As signposted as it may seem, at night, tired after a long day, there's nothing overtly telling a driver to stop - nothing reflexive. Nav systems have people distracted from things like reading roadsigns and actually being aware of the road ahead. |

I have property near Machias and have been to Roque's Bluff many times before. Given distraction/fatigue, night darkness, unfamiliarity with area and dense fog, I can see this happening. This is really sad stuff

Not the first to drive into the water there, a few who didn't die, and a couple of women and their dog who did drown in 2013. |
