This situation near Hwy 37 and Hwy 121 was better ! Today during home commute returning from East Marin City a near major accident happened near the intersection of Hwy 37 and Hwy 121 between a several drivers where using the left side of the road to pass the traffic backup and cut ahead of the crowd.
This is an ongoing problem because people want to get home or where-ever as soon as possible and do not want to wait in the proper lane inline. So, they get into the right shoulder and pass all the cars and trucks to jump ahead of the crowd. The problem is that the line of traffic is bumper to bumper and usually no room for someone to cut in line.
This will create Road Rage at this location.
Please sign my petition I will forward it to the correct representative and agency which can and will act and ask to have this human caused traffic problem fixed. The signs clearly label way ahead of the intersection but are ignored by drivers who feel they are more important the need to get home before the rest of the traffic already in the proper lane.
My solution would be to put those Plastic or concrete barriers in between the shoulder of the road perhaps 2/3 mile preventing people from using the right shoulder to pass and stopping traffic longer and preventing a future road rage incident!
We the undersigned, call on the State of California, Caltrans, US Gov. Hwy Safety Commision to eliminate this man made traffic condition once and forever.
The traffic signs are clearly label way ahead of the intersection but are ignored by many drivers who feel they are more important then rest of the traffic already in the proper lane for the Vallejo Hwy 80 connection. Bad drivers in a hurry to get where-ever force their way in the right shoulder passing bumber to bumber traffic. One can imagine the worse case results if the road rage driver had hit the patiently awaiting drivers sitting in traffic..
One solution would be to put those plastic or concrete barriers in between the right land and the shoulder of the road way before the intersection perhaps up to a 2/3 mile preventing people from using the shoulder to pass traffic and preventing a future road rage incident!
