too many accidents at this
too many accidents at this intersection lately. Something needs to be done. I've said before this intersection needs a turning arrow for north and south traffic on oak street. probably someone got tired of waiting 2 or 3 lights to make a left turn and tried to beat oncoming traffic...just a hunch
