Description
Recently the duration of left turn signal (green arrow) was reduced. Besides that this is causing left turning traffic backing up way into the forward driving lane, a lot of cars are observed to still go once the light turns red causing very unsafe and road rage situations. Only 3-4 cars per turning lane make it on green arrow which is not enough for the volume of traffic experienced in this intersection. Please reconsider the timing on these traffic signals.
