As mentioned above, just wait until Walmart opens, we'll all think back wistfully on how traffic was so much better before they put a huge box store right on top of a terrible intersection. Can't get city planning any better than that!

A Morse Blvd bridge over 44 would help but that won't happen.
Both Morse and 44 will need to be widened eventually. It wasn’t that long ago that many said 54 couldn’t be widened, yet it was. Wesley Chapel is a different beast than Wildwood, but the solution remains the same. Especially if things are only guaranteed to get worse.

Maybe the traffic circles at Kristine Way needs to be eliminated? They could just put in a light.

LOL, just look at the thread where the OP asked a simple yes or no question that was answered correctly in the very first reply. There are now 2 pages and 28 replies from the folks who think they're comedians and aren't even mildly funny. Some people just gotta pad that post count. I'd be embarrassed to have as many posts as some on here. Talk about having no life!

I feel no need to tailgate the car in front of me to prevent the rare chance that somebody might add 10 seconds to a drive time. It is a choice. I have travelled this intersection dozens or even hundreds of times and TWICE I have had a line cutter. I did not get angry. Might have cost me a whole additional signal change if I didn't make the light. I will continue to allow space between my car and the one in front of me so that should I get bumped from behind I won't then hit the car in front of me. I don't consider road safety to be "serving time"

Deep breaths, repeat
