Description

This morning I witnessed the aftermath of yet another accident at this intersection. It seems like this intersection has more than its share of side impact accidents. The traffic signal is the old style (dimmer than modern ones) and it runs in perfect sync with the light at Myrtle and South Main. I'm not a traffic safety engineer but I feel the number of incidents occurring in this general vicinity deserves a closer look. It would seem that people aren't seeing the signals, or are focusing on the wrong one as they approach. One of the cars involved in this morning's accident ended up on the sidewalk in such a way that would have seriously injured or killed a person walking there. Please look into this!
