Airing of Grievances: No-Turn-Sign-Happy Civil Engineers

Filed under:   by Xrlq @ 8:59 am

I think there needs to be a limit on how many turn restrictions may exist on streets within a certain geographical distance of one another. Without any such restrictions, these guys just can’t help themselves. A forced right turn here, no left turn here, no U-turns at the next street, no turns at all at the one after that… at some point it becomes impossible to get from Point A to Point B without breaking some law somewhere (assuming, of course, that these signs ARE all legal, and were not placed there by some college frat boys as a prank – a generous assumption on my part). They might as well be more honest and save a hell of a lot more taxpayer money by putting up just ONE sign, reading “Y’all cain’t get thar from hee-yer!”

    I would blame Urban Planners, they want to make it hard to drive so you will take the bus.
