Description

Outer Drive is marked as a two lane road, yet most drivers incorrectly consider it a three lane. When the light on north-bound Outer Drive at Village Road turns red, cars line up 3-across. When the light turns green, the cars race off the line and the curb car races by my house at speeds up to 50 and 60 miles per hour to pull ahead of the adjacent car - making working on one's lawn a potential death waiting to happen. Two serious accidents have happened in recent years for just this reason. A possible and very simple solution would be to make the right lane "Right Lane Must Turn Right" onto Village Road at this intersection, thereby preventing the need for speed in the RH curb lane when the "green start the race" flag (green light) is waved.
