In our case, we truly hate turning left onto a 4-lane road like Morse without a stop light to help us.

Like the UPS drivers, we plan our shopping trips so we do not have to turn left onto a dangerous road without having a stop light.

I have a friend who lives in the Sandalwood condos across from Chitty Chatty and he says it is a nightmare to turn left on Morse in the morning. He wished there was a stop light at that intersection.

It is comforting to know the Dept. of Transportation is behind the beautiful sidewalk along Route 44. I trust the Government because they are here to help us.
