I hope folks are not thinking I am blaming the gate or the gate keeper for that accident. Quite the contrary! The post about the accident just caused me to think about that gate, and what I see sometimes when I approach it...sometimes a back up, and sometimes drivers in a hurry switching lanes. (perhaps this accident was because someone was trying to switch lanes at the last minute?) I personally think the gates are kinda silly, but understand their reason for being, and always defend them to my friends who wonder why they are there... if anyone can get in. Like many other growth issues in TV, I was thinking that the gate now might be better if further north from 466, (or perhaps the roadway and cart crossing re-designed...Morse is only one lane all the way to Camino Real). I think the gate keepers do a great job all over TV.
