There is this crazy invention in cars now-a-days called a blinker or indicator. It allows people to know if you plan on turning. This crazy concept would solve HALF of the problems with the RB's. Leaving a RB is no different than turning right or left off of a street (not that people religiously let other drivers know when they are doing that either). If people would use them to let others know when they are exiting the RB, it would allow the "outside" lane know, and also incoming traffic as well, so that traffic can flow smoother.....the whole point of a RB. There is no correcting bad drivers and lack of common sense, but I whole heartedly believe that every buyer (new or used house) and renter in TV should receive a piece of paper on how our RB's work. There are many people that have never driven in one until coming here. For some reason driving etiquette seems to disappear when arriving in TV. The signs make perfect sense, that is not the problem.
