I find the opposite. Numerous times the carts and bicyclists roll in front of me, without stopping, as I pull through the gate by Burnsed. They never stop, even when they see the gate arm has lifted and I need to pull ahead. It has become worse since they opened the bridge over 44. The traffic on that path has increased immensely. Recently, three times I have had to slam on my brakes when driving down Deskin Lane as a man on bicycle flys through the side streets never stopping. I rarely see bicyclists stop at the stop signs within our neighborhood. Many cars and carts don’t either. And as you know, Deskin Lane is a curvy, narrow, busy thoroughfare.
