On Traffic Lights
Thankfully there is now a team getting the traffic lights in order. I'm sure their work is cut out for them but the lights at the Village Road extension and Mackey Street were back on Friday morning.
Now we must have a national driving refresher course so people will understand that blocking the intersection or running yellow and red lights is illegal. That pushing in when someone is being courteous to one car, not a run of ten is discourteous. That cutting through gas stations to avoid the light is just rude.
In any event, I would like to thank those responsible for putting emphasis on the traffic light issue.
