Description

Yet another very dangerous intersection for pedestrians downtown. In the afternoon rush hour, when walking south on the sidewalk on the east side of Griffin, attempting to cross Patterson St, auto traffic attemption to enter Griffin from Patterson consistently tries to occupy the crossing in order to expedite their entry onto Griffin, and they frequently pretend not to see pedestrians, obviously expecting pedestrians to yield to them and wait for them to enter Griffin. Never mind that there are typically 3 or 4 cars waiting to do the same thing. Dangerous place. I've had to yell at drivers and beat on their cars to get them to yield to me.
