In many cases, an automobile can make a right turn without interfering with pedestrian movements at wide intersections that are six lanes wide or wider. Motorists waiting 15 seconds for a pedestrian to approach the vehicle and then another 15 seconds for them to cross delays traffic and if there are many pedestrians who need to cross ensures only a single car can turn at each signal change.Motorists should wait for pedestrians to cross first if there is any conflict, but it makes perfect sense for cars to first complete their turns if it does not cause the pedestrian to slow down or stop. That is what makes sense. If the law is in conflict, it needs to be reassessed. Your link does not work. As for left turns vs right turns, I do not get it. You are merely trading one for the other. In right turns you must look for pedestrians and bikes and for left turns, vehicles in the opposite direction and pedestrians. So you are merely trading bikes for vehicles. That is still two variables. |
