It's been mentioned several times, but man I wish folks would stop holding up traffic to let carts cross before entering the roundabouts. Happens nearly every day as I drive into Spanish Springs from Paige Place. You are NOT being courteous, and you can get someone killed.

Just a couple of observations and points and then I'll quit. :thumbup:

Since Buena Vista and Morse are our main thoroughfares, in the spirit of reaching a destination within a reasonable amount of time with no aggravation, it would be so nice to be able to drive from one end of TV to the other without so many of the circles. Unfortunately, not possible.

I would guess that 98% of residents never dealt with circles in their previous home town. They had 2 to 4-way stop signs and traffic lights. They probably had a similar amount of accidents as here, give or take a few.

Morse, north of 466, has no circles. Egress from each Villages is via a stop sign. Morse is only one lane in each direction with no median. There are hardly any accidents. :shrug:

Okay. I'm done. Peace!

You think that stopping at several traffic lights instead of constantly flowing traffic circles would provide a less aggravating drive?
