The biggest issue as I see it along this stretch is drivers in the left lane driving well under the speed limit

What is worse is the people who rush to each stop light between Telegraph and downtown. A guy in Ram truck came up hard behind me the other day then swerved around me and in and out of a couple more cars.
The temptation to cut in and out of traffic would be reduced if the lanes were cut down. Rather there are two or three lanes each way is irrelevant in helping traffic flow when traffic can't go faster than the red lights.
The right lane each way could be used as a bike lane and also add a safe spot for buses to stop.

still is going on. I don"t know what people are thinking. east and west 59 people drive crazy. way to fast . they block the light on Genesse and you can not turn something can not even cross 59 . The police need to watch this area, Lots of money to be made.

This issue needs to be addressed. I personally am FORCED to travel at 25 mph PLUS over the posted limit because I fear for my own safety, when travelling the speed limit on this stretch.

erect a shpping mall therre, that will put an end to this nonsense.

speed limit to slow anyway

their have been 2 accidents on Gennesse and W. Huron in the last . We need traffic enforcement.

Pontiac has money problems? Stick some cops on M59 between Woodward and the I-75 ramps. I don't like to speed, but I've gone up to 15 over the speed limit just to keep up with traffic and people are FLYING past me. Very scary!

The posted speed limit is too low. If you don't like it, there are two lanes; get over.

That is a VERY constructive comment. Good work, bud.

People are still speeding through this area - the posted speed limit goes from 70 (at I-75 and M-59) to 55 to 45 to 35.. in the 55 and 45, people are still going over 70. I understand that the speed limit is too low - however, how is that an arguement against a ticket? If a cop was sitting there, and he pulled someone over going 70 in the 55, they'd still get a ticket. People should petition to have the limit raised, and DO THE CURRENT LIMIT until it is raised.

(and yes, I am the one you BLOW by because I'm doing ~60 in the 55 instead of 75 on that stretch. Why am I in the fast lane then? Because 60 is STILL over the speed limit!)

After traveling this section for 15years, i have come to the conclusion that because the Pontiac police didn't care, the Oakland county sheriffs don't care either. Everyone knows there are more important crimes being committed, but during their slow time, they could make a fortune for Pontiac(or the county).
