It's pretty bad. Crossing 301 at 472, especially at night, one could easily enter the 301 turn lane. There are no "do not enter" signs at these turn lanes. And I don't recall any "right turn only" signs on 472. The turn lanes are perfectly lined up with 472, appearing to be a staging area to cross 301. Worst design I have ever encountered imho.
