The Watchdog: Cars that stop make on-ramp off-putting
Today’s problem
Overland Park’s Steve Dailey has some issues with how drivers handle the on-ramp from northbound Quivira Road to eastbound Interstate 435.
He says drivers stop needlessly as they make that right turn to allow cars making cars of the 1920s a left turn from southbound Quivira to the interstate on-ramp. He points out that there are two lanes on the ramp that should allow northbound drivers to make that right turn and merge without stopping as they get on the ramp.
“Could the city put up a sign that says ‘merge later’ or something similar to educate the majority of drivers that don’t seem to get it?” he asks.
The answer
No go, Steve.
Not much the Kansas Department of Transportation can or will do about this situation. KDOT engineers have determined that the existing signs at that location are in the “best interest” of driver safety.
They say the existing signs do not force potential vehicle conflicts on the ramp, but still allow drivers the freedom to wade their way into traffic in a way they consider appropriate and safe.
The Watchdog says running around tokyo drift cars answering all these questions makes his paws hurt. Wonder if Mayor Funk would give the Dog a toe massage?
