Thank you. Will forward to South Precinct.

Traffic southbound on Maysville Rd. has a stop, but there is a sign that says “turn right without stopping.” So that traffic only has to stop if making a left hand turn. Traffic traveling westbound on Randolph Ave. has to stop, but eastbound doesn’t. This might be a little confusing for drivers not familiar with the area (they might be under the impression that if they’re stopped, the traffic on Maysville Rd. has to stop then giving traffic on Randolph Ave. the right of way). This complaint is probably better suited for Traffic Engineering since it would be up to that department to make any changes at the intersection.

The issue has not been resolved. Huntsville Police Department referred this issue back to Traffic Engineering.

Thank you for contacting the City of Huntsville. We have reassigned your service request to the (XXXXXX) department and a representative will respond shortly.

This issue was referred back to Traffic Engineering by the Police Department but Traffic Engineering still has not addressed the issue.

ALA CODE § 32-5A-110 : Alabama Code - Section 32-5A-110: VEHICLE APPROACHING OR ENTERING INTERSECTION

(a) When two vehicles approach or enter an intersection from different highways at approximately the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left shall yield the right-of-way to the vehicle on the right.
(b) The right-of-way rule declared in subsection (a) is modified at through highways and otherwise as stated in this chapter.
(Acts 1980, No. 80-434, p. 604, §4-101

The driver to the right always has the "right of way". Which in this case is the Maysville Rd vehicle.

The problem is that this is not 2 stop signs. The stop sign on Maysville states to turn RIGHT without stopping. The problem you get is when their is a vehicle coming from Toll Gate that is already stopped at the stop sign. Then the vehicle from Maysville slows down to make the RIGHT hand turn but the vehicle on Toll Gate assumes they are slowing to stop and they proceed through the intersection at the same time the other vehicle is proceeding through the intersection. Both drivers are convinced they have the right of way. This creates some road rage at best and at worst is going to create a collision. The sign on Maysville needs to either be changed so that it is not "Turn right without stopping." or the The sign on Toll Gate needs to indicate that drivers coming from Maysville are not required to stop.
