Driving north on Meggison, after going under Warm Springs Ave, then under Meggison bridge, the first / next development on the right, which is being developed behind a wall, has an outbound road which has a rather sharp right hand turn and the golf cart crossing will not be visible until the last 50 -75 feet.
This development's exit is very dangerous for golf carts if someone is coming too fast and not paying attention. If the current design stands, I predict that there will be a golf cart accident and death. please be careful when the development is opened to the public. good luck. . |

Yep. When they put the wall up all the way to the curve creating a blind spot for cars exiting that development I was thinking that was a recipe for disaster. Time will tell.

Suggest you contact District Property Management. I would if I knew the area & details.
Several email addresses on their page. I have contacted them in the past, always with a response. I share your concern. VCDD District Property Management

Hopefully something will be done but after stopping if you can see 50-75 feet you should be able to cross safely.

There will probably be a STOP sign on the MMP, so there should not be a safety problem for the people who obey the signs.

There's already a stop sign on the MMP. The problem lies with the cars exiting that section of St. Johns. They are coming around a corner out from behind a wall. Unless they put in a stop sign for auto traffic prior to them reaching the MMP there is going to be issues.

Yes, I have already had that happen - a contractor in a pick-up had to lock up his brakes to avoid hitting me in the crosswalk - he was coming around the wall way too fast.

"IF" people obey and stop at the sign is HUGE!!! I see people daily sailing through signs and seemingly going their merry way without so much as slowing down. Add to that age with all it brings----lack of good depth perception, being on multiple medications and slowness of action. Follow through with the calls!!

You can stop and look, and still get hit because you can’t see through a wall. The exit for cars is a blind curve. Cars can’t see golf carts until they are around the wall and on top of them. Extremely dangerous.

I agree a very bad design, hopefully they will remove one section of wall. Painting a bunch of yellow lines in roadway does not improve visibility.

Your warning is appreciated, but will not change a thing as many older people just don't have the ability to sense many dangerous situations. So unless you can alter the aging of the brain accidents will happen no matter how the MMT's are designed. EX: how many carts to you see run stop signs, don't signal and drive around with a radio blasting?
