This intersection should have never been put in it was like it was snuck in over the weekend when they built the sub divison .This about one in a couple or doz wrecks at this intersection including school buses ect.need to close section of road north of west roberts
Me thinks Molino Girl is smarter than all of you…..
One of the worse intersections north of I-10 in this county. Worse because more and more folks think they are super drivers and fail to be defensive… instead, lots are offensive and squeeze in to gaps that do not exist.
No…. You don’t own the road in your $50k+ auto…. Enjoy
Oops…meant to say stop light.
It’s going to take someone getting T-boned and killed before they even consider putting a stop sign there.
It’s needed one for years.
Everyone is so quick to judge!!! This makes me sad. Instead of showing kindness and concern for the ones involved, the one injured and the families involved, their making assumptions and accusations. I’m not saying that one or even both drivers might have been negligent, but I’m definitely not a perfect driver or an authority in moving vehicle accidents. I just wish our World had kinder, more mindful of others, and caring people in it. I’m so over the negativity everywhere. I’m praying for the injured and everyone affected by this wreck.
If the federal government wanted people to stop using their cell phones while driving,
all they would have to do is make the cell phone companies program the phone, if it is moving faster than 5MPH it would not send or receive calls or text, very simple solution. goes for the passengers also. They could program it for 911 exception.
If you cant read a stop sign…AND STOP JABBERING AND STAY OFF THE CELLPHONE..this is what happens
Do things like these wrecks…you will not be able to be on a cellphone or jabber forever
Humans are stupid//It wont happen to me// I am too smart?
I have lived here on West Roberts rd. for 40 yrs…………that Intersection is Haunted……way before the homes…..the pine trees were always getting in the way ………..so many car accidents here ,and I have been told even before I moved here……..accidents right there……….haunted i tell ya….haunted!They know….they all know…….
I live near that intersection and have to travel through it all the time. I can tell you it definitely needs a light. There has been increased traffic though there since Navy Federal moved in (which is a good thing) and all the road construction started. We need a light there desperately but our neighborhoods seems to get ignored when it comes to road improvements.
I travel through that intersection and have had a couple of close calls due to people just not paying attention.
I live around the corner and people forget how to drive when they get to this intersection. That poor house on the northeast corner has been hit a few times. The fence gets hit at least every few years. The truck traffic that goes thru here is just dumb. I thought there was a no truck traffic sign once upon a time?
People using common sense isn’t going to work so I vote a roundabout. Oh and can we put a gas station at this intersection while we are at it?
Hope all involved recover quickly.
Travel this intersection almost daily and have never had even a close call. People need to pay attention and obey the traffic laws. The speeds aren’t that fast in this area…..unless you are driving like a fool so not really any reason to not see the stop and yield signs. You can have the most well designed road or intersection in the world and if people don’t pay attention or they drive too fast or whatever….it doesn’t make any difference.
@Kevin a roundabout would work great, but these people can’t handle a simple stop sign.
The sign says stop not crash here. Pay attention people
No people just need to pay attention. We dont need a round a bout. We need people to stay off the cell phone.
put a roundabout there
That intersection is scary. Instead of a light, maybe put speed bumps for the people coming up North on Pine Forest to the intersection so they have to slow down whether they know there is a stop sign or not. Maybe it will wake up the people that don’t know or make the others drop their phone.
Another one?
There have been problems here for a while. They need to just put a traffic light. Have been in several close calls here.
