Sunday afternoon irritation

1 minute? 2 minutes? Do you hit it every Sunday? Hey I'm just trying to share the outrage and quantifying it will help.

2 minutes is probably accurate for the first round - waiting for a line of cars go exit. The fun actually begins at the stop sign a half mile away as I wait another 10 minutes behind the same 30 - 40 cars as they wait to turn. None of that is relevant to my subject however. What bothers me is the principle - why I should have to wait in the first place.

But lets not so quickly let go of your first post.

Help us out here, can you quantify the time out of your life this is taking while all these other cars are allowed to safely enter the road?

Please cite the church and detail the specific safety issues they've had without traffic control.

I'm awaiting a legitimate response to this as well; especially the part in bold.

I feel the same way about school buses. :pop2:

I'm not sure I follow your first part exactly but it sounds like your issue is with a an intersection 1/2 mile away that is not designed to handle peak volume. Not sure what to say there. I suppose your proposal is to let the traffic back up in the parking lot instead of the street and instead of having a handful of merges leaving the parking lot have hundreds? I had asked how many times this happens. You are always going down this road at the same time on Sunday morning? I have traffic backups everyday on my commute. I adjust my time and travel route to minimize it.
I made the assumption an officer directing traffic was doing so safely. Sorry if that's an incorrect assumption.

Sorry didn't answer that. I can appreciate that. I don't like waiting either. But until I can afford my compound in Idaho and retire, I've resigned myself to the fact I have to live around other people... and sometimes they get in the way. Sometimes I get in their way. I figure it's a reasonable trade off.
