Description

This drives me nuts. First of all, there's no reason for 2 lanes going straight and a right turn lane here. The roadway before this is "unmarked', it's just a wide road with no distinct lanes, so why have 2 lanes to go straight, especially when the road just merges after the intersection anyway? EVEN WORSE - there is constantly a line of cars parked IN THE MERGING LANE on the other side of the intersection. So if you're in the left-most straight-ahead lane, you have nowhere to go except to cut off the person in the right-most straight-ahead lane. How can the City let people park here?! It's clearly marked as a merging lane and NOT as street parking! Why not just combine the (extremely narrow) 2 lanes to 1, and then allow the parking after re-striping? This City makes no sense!
