CRVA Truck Ban
Citizens made this film in 2004 to support a ban on interstate truck traffic on a narrow two lane stretch of Route 17 between Delaplane and Paris, Virginia. The film shows the truck traffic and accidents that occurred before the speed limit was lower and the trucks were banned. Since the ban and the 45mph speed limit were imposed, there have been no serious accidents on the road.
Fire in the Crooked Run Valley
Charles E Strother of Valley View Farm next to Sky Meadows State Park, follows the traditional agricultural practices of his father Eddie, burning his fields every year in early spring. Charles explains why he burns, and shows how he prepares by first carefully burning the perimeter of the field.
Beginning in Febuary, Fauquier County burning laws permit fires only after 4PM. Consequently the big burns occur after dark and these night fires light up the sky on busy Route 17 just at the time when commuters are returning home. With cell phones in most every car, the local fire department gets hundreds of alarm calls and people pull off of Route 17 to travel down Leeds Manor Road to watch the spectacular scene.
