Description

There is a relatively new traffic light at this intersection, which I understand was somewhat controversial when it was isntalled. Either way, recently the road was repaved, an though they did leave a gap in the double yellow line, there is not line telling you where to stop when the light is red. This wouldn't normally be a problem, but whoever painted the lines didn't break the double yellow until nearly under the traffic light. If you use that as a guide, you'll be way too far into the intersection. Further, visually, it doesn't really feel like your are traveling through an intersection, as there are 30 other side streets in this stretch and the light is almost always green. It would be an easy one to run, if you're not paying attention.
