Description

As the Whalley Light turned Green, a Ford Explorer pushed the light to turn left from westbound Whalley onto southbound Orchard in front all of the eastbound traffic that was starting forward. Just as she did this, three eastbound motorcycles raced around to the right of the two lanes full of cars, to push through the intersection. Somehow, with squealing tires and a miracle, they all missed each other. But this illustrates the extreme danger we are all put in when terrible New Haven road behavior occurs and goes unpoliced. Please increase the enforcement of traffic laws on the streets of New Haven. We are all victim of the lax enforcement. The emergency services did not have to respond to this near miss, but they are another overtaxed group that is paying the price.
