The name should be changed to Six Foot Under Road.

Every time I approach and go through that intersection I cringe. I think it may be haunted.

I have no problem with this intersection! I totally fail to understand what the issue is here. I don't make this turn often, but when I do, it has never been a mind bender in my book, just another crossover intersection.

Maybe there are more dummied than I'm used to?

Lives are worth far more than what it cost to put up a friggin stop light...there are plenty of spares in storage!!

It angers me to no end that when we request one were we
who have common sense know it is needed, we are blown off
with the bull about...Oh that requires a multi million $$$
study to be done ...

It is all Politics from MD Govt that they refuse to put up
a light there at 60 ft road .....don't want to stop those
rich yuppies coming to Ocean City...... Period

It's not the Gov's fault people can not drive. Look both ways, yield right of way. It's not that difficult.

The Govt waists millions around here now putting up
Damn Round Abouts ,,,instead of a Damn Stop light which
costs FAR less to say the least....

It will probably put in a Round About at 60 ft rd instead !!

Thank the GOV for waisting your tax money by the millions

Put dirt on either side of 50 and in the middle. Build a flyover with no entrance/exit to 50. Problem solved.

9:03. FYI witnesses reported she looked TWICE. Yes she pulled in front of a black car with no head lights on in a area that s mandatory. Don't be ignorant unless you witnessed it and have your facts straight.

Tell me what the hell does it take to PUT a Stop light in ??

An act of congress??
Must it pass the House and Senate ?? spend Millions ???

If the rich city bunch wants to come to OUR Ocean city,
then they will just have to put up with stopping at a
stop light, whether they Like it or Not !!!

and she still couldn't see a car coming at her?

I have a cheaper fix. Just close off the intersection. Tear up the asphalt in the median and plant it with wildflowers. Problem solved. Let the people who shouldn't be driving find another way to Pittsville.

that intersection has a bit of an angle to it. if one doesn't align their car correctly the roof/windshield support will cause a blind spot. A vehicle can be in this blind spot and one wouldn't see it until they moved.

They must have drank a glass of that water

As someone who spends a lot of time on the road, I am surprised at the number of people who run red lights. Had I not seen him at the light at Wor-Wic, I would not be here to write this as a pick up would of caught me in the driver door! So a new traffic light is not a guarantee of no accidents at sixty foot road.

this will go there.....!!
