Good morning,
I used the roundabout at eastbound River Islands Parkway (RI Pkwy) and Norbeck regularly to get home. I've had a few near-misses due to drivers westbound on RI Pkwy not yielding to cars already in the roundabout. I have witnessed a couple of accidents there also. I think that because RI Pkwy is a major road, drivers think they have the right-of-way and maybe due also to ignorance of traffic rules regarding runabouts. Although there is a yield sign at lamp post before entering the roundabout, most drivers miss it.
Ticket Comment
Thank you for taking the time to report the streetlight. We have reached out to our electrical contractor and the light should be repaired within one week.
Thank you.
