Description

As I entered Route 8 at the new entrance ramp near Griffin today I saw the hazard so many have been talking about. The horribly designed "traffic circle" placed dangerously in front of the entrance ramp!

I noticed dirt on the road so we slowed down and I was able to get these pictures. Not only are tire tracks I saw weeks ago on the right side still there, now trash has been thrown out and someone hit this thing at high speed (over the weekend) kicking up the dirt on the road and doing quite a bit of damage to the landscaped area.

Derby clearly is not maintaining this or they would have already removed the weeks old tracks, forget the trash and now more damage. You have to slow to a crawl to not slam into that round about... I can imagine the danger at night.

What if this new vehicle that clearly hit with some speed flipped? What if it's passengers were injured or worse?

I assume Derby is ready to settle every time they get sued for creating a road hazzard? Really?
