New traffic light
 
Finally! They finally changed the light at 466A and Morse for making a left hand turn onto Morse from 466A. It is now left on green arrow only. No more inching into the dangerous intersection with oncoming traffic. I don't know if they have changed it in any other direction as yet, or if the light at 466A and Buena Vista have been changed. This should reduce the number of accidents at those very busy intersections.

I still plan to inch into this intersection. I don't trust the traffic going north on Morse to stop. especially the trucks.

And that's why we can't have nice things in The Villages.

I think Happinow means a different kind of inching. I think she is talking about people inching into the intersection to try to make a left-hand turn after the green arrow for left-turn-only has-gone off.

To my knowledge, the one at BV and 466A has not been changed. Maybe we don't have enough accidents per year at this intersection yet.

I am extra careful at the 466A, and Morse or BV intersection as I have seen several accidents occur.

I hope this traffic light change helps.
