What Is Wrong With This Photograph? Part 113

Going in the right direction is not always easy.

Once again, I tend to notice the most minute things around me whenever I go for a walk; and what I spotted during a recent walk near a major thoroughfare was no exception and prompted me to take photographs.

  1. What is wrong is that the road is not one way. They are lying. What is likely is that the road has a median strip or barrier. The correct sign would be no left turn.

    In the first photo, there is a sign that is covered up. That might be a no left turn. Either that or it says “speed limit 5, next 20 feet” in order to be a speed trap.

    1. The one way sign could also be misinterpreted to mean that it is a one way to the left turn lane from the main road to the little road. Drive that way (wide right turn from the small road to the main road) and you’ll get into a head on collision.

  2. I have looked at the photo again. For safety, there should be a right turn arrow painted on the road surface. This is not an answer to the question but merely a suggestion for preserving human life. If Brian identifies the location, I will write to city to change it.

    Recently, I wrote to a small town to suggest that they trim a bush that was an extreme hazard, blocking view of a crosswalk, particular if the person crossing was a small child. I volunteered to trim the bush myself if they gave me an ok. They trimmed it themselves soon afterwards.
