  • 15998 River Road Guerneville, California - Guerneville
    I work on this corner since the light was installed, I have seen numerous fights and accidents simply because there is no sign letting people know to yield left turn on green light. You would assume people would know this. However this is a tourist town and every weekend when this backs up miles, when the people traveling north on 116 reach the corner to turn left onto River Rd they cut off everyone that has the right of way traveling from Old River Rd trying to turn right (which obviously have the right of way). It appears that Every single car turning left assumes that the people on Old River Rd have a red light. Or because it is hard to even see there is a street there, they don't even notice. Yesterday I was traveling on Old River Rd and needed to go straight onto 116, I got the green light and started to go a car turned left in front of me and almost struck my car. 2 more cars did the same thing even though I had the green as well, finally i crept slowly out a little more and a gentleman got out of his car and yelled at me, until I pointed out that I had the green light as well. He was very apologetic. However if you watch this intersection on ANY weekend, this happens all day long. Going the other direction there is a sign that says yield left turn on green light. This would be a simple solution for this side as well. There will be more accidents and road rage until this is corrected. It has been years and it is getting worse. Please just add the Yield sign so the people traveling from 116 and turning left onto River Rd can see it.
