Anyone see the accident by the Rt 5 / Bryantown store last night supposedly it bocked traffic for over 45mins. Anyone else get caught up in this?

Ever since they put the traffic light in there it has caused more accidents than I can think of...

...only if you aren't paying attention. Also, what's up with the knuckleheads that pull out in front of you from the parking lot? That's happen to me quite a few times. Maybe one too many trips for beverages...:otter:

I hate the ####### brake draggers... pull up to the light and STOP! It totally 'effs everyone behind you.

People still dont pay attention at that light. I have seen people slam on their brakes and skid through the red light and then back up. The next place for a bad accident is going to be Trotters Road (The road that runs behind Bryantown Mall) and Oliver Shop. People fly down Trotter Road to pass the brake draggers turning onto Oliver Shop and they dont stop at the stop sign off of Trotters going on to Oliver Shop.

What's a brake dragger? :confused: Are they keeping their brakes on too long, using too much brakes? :confused:

They ride their brakes.

Even if the lights green? :confused: I thought people were just being cautious. I'd rather they rode their brakes being cautious at a dangerous intersection than gassing it full steam ahead :shrug: :lol:

People timing the light... they REALLY slow up when it is red and slow down when they come over the bridges at Zekiah and see it is green... traffic will stack up big time with people slow rolling to catch a green or traffice starting to move.

They just try to time it so it is green when they get there, do not want to stop... it 'effs us up turning on Oliver's Shop Road...

Hey brake draggers have rights too.:killingme

By no means am I a brake dragger, but people are afraid of the redlight camera, when heading southbound, while Im heading toward the intersection you can look over toward Bryantown Rd and see if anyone is at that light and you can see the left turn lanes to see if anyone might have hit the trip for the light to turn, but da*m you cant see if anyone is waiting at the light at Oliver Shop Rd to come out from that fence that sits right on the edge of the road, so it becomes a bit of a challenge do I put the pedal to the metal :whistle:or do I keep one foot just above the brake pedal.
Northbound is much easier with the flashing light if it comes on I know just where I have to be at the time it starts flashing to make it through the intersection.:whistle:

north bound is never a problem - that flashing light is the way to go... but going southbound you can see that light from a distance.

I know it is a quandry when you (not you personally) are driving, but you get people who will have 80 - 100 feet between them and the next car slow rolling... those are the draggers SUX2B and I are speaking of.

Does anyone else have a problem with the flashing light setting of their radar detectors? :confused:
