Description

Just north of the intersection with Devine St., a sign on the right hand side states "Lane Ends - Move Left." Aggressive drivers select the leftmost lane (which should only be for those turning onto Devine St.) and cut in ahead of people in the "middle" lane (now the right lane.) Ending(?) the right lane instead of the left-turn lane is a bad idea, because no one with any sense would get into the left lane and be stuck behind cars trying to turn left, when they could be assured a smooth passage behind those going straight in the right lane. This sign is asking for trouble, rewarding selfish, risky driving, and drivers dangerously jockey for position here dozens of times each day.
