When going to Manchester from E. Hartford on Silver Lane/Spencer Street, there is an on ramp on the right to go to I-384. There is a traffic light there. When the light is red, so one stops at it. They just go about 60 MPH right through the red light. When the light is red, it may mean that pedestrians/bicyclists are crossing. If they do not know about people not stopping at the red light, they may just proceed across. They cannot see if anyone is going through the light, as cars that are stopped there to go straight are blocking their view. Not sure if this will help, as no one obeys no turn on red signs, but it's a start.

This location is in Manchester and, therefore, outside of the Town of
East Hartford's jurisdiction.

I created a watch area for The Manchester General Manager but it looks like it is out of their town boundaries as well.
Manchester is responsible for this area or is it the State?

Hi Scott,
I'm not sure of the jurisdiction either. First off, try reporting the issue to the town directly at its Web site... Here's a link:
http://www.townofmanchester.org/manager/public/public_entry.cfm
The link leads to a form for you to fill out and there is information available at various points in the form that the town has provided. It might answer some questions. Either way, filing a report there creates a record of your issue in the town's database and stuff is referred to appropriate people.
Give that a try first.
