cant fix stupid...
That intersection is an accident waiting to happen most of the time. People coming from the east are always in such a hurry or are just totally ignorant as the "right turn lane" going to the north is strictly for making a right turn. Accidents have happened so many times. Near misses a lot of the times. Wouldn't it be nice if there were cops in the Yellow Jacket parking lot or at least at the Nursery across the street to monitor the illegal passings on the "right turn only lanes!" A very serious problem there and could be a "State or county money maker!" lol
Maybe there needs to be a flashing stop light there for the 120th ave drivers?
