Description

Cars on Rte 219 South (driving west, from Granby toward Pleasant Valley) turning left at the Rte 179 intersection and continuing on Rte 219 South, frequently fail to stop at the stop sign. It's especially common when there's a line of cars ... the first car goes through, then all the rest continue right along behind it, without stopping.

I've seen troopers near here, I assume watching the intersection, but it's not very often. And it doesn't seem to put a dent in the frequency of drivers cruising the stop sign.

This has been going on for decades and I'm sure is not news to police or town officials, but something really needs to be done. I'm getting tired of having to "slalom" my way through this intersection.
