One-Way Streets in San Elijo Hills
Traffic flow is oftentimes an issue in the community, particularly around the Town Square where many of the streets are one-way. According to the CA DMV website:
Except when a sign is in place prohibiting a turn, a driver, after stopping as required, facing a steady red signal, may turn right, or turn left from a one-way street onto a one-way street. A driver making that turn shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully within an adjacent crosswalk and to any vehicle that has approached or is approaching so closely as to constitute an immediate hazard to the driver, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way until the driver can proceed with reasonable safety.
For the safety of our residents, please be aware of pedestrians and oncoming traffic and yield the right-of-way!
I understand the law, but the light by Stoked needs to be an exclusive green for pedestrians. I have seen so many “near misses” from people turning left from SEH to Elfin Forest. We can afford to teach one driver at a time because the almost hit someone.
It could be a pedestrian only, when someone pushes the button.
Or make it simple, no turns on red period, like many big city intersections like NYC.
Sorry, that should have read “We can’t afford to teach one driver at a time because they almost hit someone”.
And this happens when they turn on a green or red
