Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
When I lived in Omaha, there were a number of "go right to turn left" intersections. A bit confusing, but actually quite practical once you get used to them.

Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
If the government won't protect us from ourselves, who will?
The single thing I like when traveling around TX (mostly Dallas) are the Texas U-turns they have on all the highway's access roads.Originally Posted by MarkCO
My Feedback
Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
Traffic engineers always annoy me. So much of what they "fix" is busy work. Like the moronic blinking yellow arrows that Aurora's retarded traffic department adopted for no reason.

I can't complain anymore. I drive 55 miles one way to work and see exactly 0 stoplights if I take a certain route. At most if I take the first exit into Raton I see 3.
How about the "Continuous Flow Intersection" in Loveland?
I think "CF intersection" may stand for something else...How about the "Continuous Flow Intersection" in Loveland?

^this. I commute 67 miles one way and pass thru 2 lighted intersections.
I just hate traffic and traffic signals in general.
Actually had heavy traffic this morning. Saw more than 5 cars on the same stretch of road, at the same time! Two of them I didn't even know!
Denver Metro traffic engineers are some of the worst. I went to school with a few of them. I worked on a CDOT ($400K) and a DCC ($200K) team project for traffic light timing as projects while in engineering school. We proved the concept with minor infrastructure changes, mostly software changes and they rejected it. I don't remember the number of hours, fuel and pollants saved, but it was huge. That was in 1987 and 1991. They finally got around to implementation of some of the "good" ideas around 2005 and last week I read about another one coming in 2015.
Don't even get me started on Boulder. They actually retarded the lights and worked a delay flow algorithm to "discourage" non-Boulderites from traversing Boulder.
