Man,....you need to call townhall quick bro.
Let them know of the issue. There might be a water leak or something. That would cause some serious injuries to people.

I've been driving this route for several years, this is the first year I've seen it here. I think it has to do with it being in the single digits before the ground is frozen right after getting 8-10 inches of snow last week. Very strange weather even for new england. Its supposed to get back up to the 40's this coming week and I think it'll be gone after that.

Hope everyone has a safe holiday! Drive carefully out there and watch out for other asshole drivers.

Hahah its very funny to see this, I live in Atlanta as well and I've never seen so many terrible drivers in one place. Its amazing

How often you go to the meet ups around here?

Still never ceased to be amazed at the rampant shoulder as traffic lane usage... crazy.

It's just an added lane here in Atlanta. Only a select few have the rights to use it.

Unfortunately mine isn't a close call Other drive tried to make an illegal U turn. Not much I could do.

She kept claiming she had a green light and there weren't any signs saying no U turn. :doh: I really wonder what goes through people's heads sometimes.

Yeah, your video is pretty clear you had the green long before you even got close to the intersection... Did she know you had the video when she made that claim?

i would have never guessed it was a female....

it is kind of an odd traffic light. i can see how it can confuse a person like her.

I can totally see how you can think the lane added sign means U turn allowed...

the thing is, she prob didnt even think that she was making a u turn, but a left turn

that is a odd intersection. I could not tell that there was even a stop light for the other car. And it looks like that lane was angled with visibility at least partially obstructed by plants.
