    You may want to fix that...

    Second.. why would you want to provide information to drunk drivers on possible check point locations?

    Hi ,i have visited your site,its look like professional. Every one have its own pint of view, my openion is,you need more content and some optimizing,its taking ages to download page,im not sure if its my connection problems.On contact page,its just my personaladvise, better putt one html form,like name and email field and down your comment box and at last send button, hopeyou understand.Because some time really people wanna give you advise or wanna share some thing but just they hate to copying your email,after opening their email, pasting and then writing and than sending bla bla,so its so easy to just write in comment box and press send button.Hope it will help,i'm going to sleep, i have add in my favorities, willcheckmore tomorrow and comment more.goodluck.

    Thanks for the catch. It has been fixed!

    Fair point on the contact page - I should probably add a contact form.

    Thanks for looking.

    Cheers!

    The site is nicely designed and it's easy to navigate however, I think it would be
    great if you added some images to it.

    i think it looks a bit empty.. i see the niche your hitting but other than that its a bit bland and needs life injecting into it.. otherwise you wont get many repeat visitors. stick some banners/ adsense on it

    Like someone has said, it is pretty plain and unoriginal. Your going to have to do something with the header area and possibly shift around the layout to something a bit more personalised. Goodluck!

    Simplicity works for me, as your site targets a very narrow audience. Easy access to relevant information, straight forward navigation and solid content. My only negative point has already been mentioned (add a contact form). I'd say overall, Great job!

    Thanks for all of the thoughts and comments. I am implementing the contact form and will certainly add adsense down the road a bit. I personally like the clean simple look of the site but clearly there a number of folks who feel it is plain or boring so I will think about what I can do to increase the visual interest without over cluttering.

    The site is looking good, tho, you need to place the menus at the center, if it is just fine with your developer, its just a little CSS

    :)
