Descrição

I was going to go swimming early yesterday morning, but they were going to be having a swim meet at Pullen Aquatic Ctr. So, I headed on over to the Millbrook Exchange Park swimming pool. It is really irritating going eastward (and I think westward too for that matter) down Hillsborough Street trying to get onto Capital Blvd. I could not hardly get through one block at a time (certainly no more than two on any of them) before getting caught by a stop light. I had to make five stops just from Ashe Avenue over to S. McDowell St. That is ridiculous! It was around 6:00 in the morning with no cars at the intersections, but yet I got caught by just about every light!! That is pure dumb and crazy!! There ought to be a trigger to change the lights to a "flashing caution" signal during light traffic times (or when little to no cars are at the crossing streets). This would save time, irritation, and costs in wasting fuel (and brakes) sitting there idling at an unoccupied intersection.
