IMHO, the intersections of 466a and either BV or Morse are POOR design. As stated above, left turn visibility is very poor, and at sunset, these are down right dangerous for West bound traffic. I have found if I go to the light with Pinellas place, left turn visibility is much better, and the tress provide some relief from the setting sun. This is about 1.5 miles out of my way, but much safer alternative.
Maybe if enough people complain to Sumter County, they might remove some of the foliage, move the left turn lanes further to the left, and alter the traffic signals.
