Bedford Ave - North 8 St - North 7 St

Delivery trucks constantly parked in bus stop. Bus lets passengers off sandwiched between bus and truck and blocks traffic.

Wythe Ave - South 6 St - Broadway

Wythe Ave is now the BQE Jr. because it is the only main avenue going South unless you shoot all the way over to Driggs. Because of this, there are non-stop trucks barreling South at high speeds all during peak times. Because Williamsburg is becoming a more and more dense residential area, trucks should be forced to drive on/under the BQE and not allowed to transit on Wythe.

Lorimer St - Calyer St - Noble St

There is no Stop sign when approaching Calyer St. In a very bizarre NYC intersection the "side" street has no stop sign and drivers go straight through the intersection without stopping. Because it is not what drivers expect it leads to confusion and potential for accidents.

Wythe Ave - North 12 St - North 11 St

Taxi/Livery drivers block the road in the evening instead of pulling over to the side of the road. Most of the time they aren't even letting a passenger in/out but are just scouting the area. All traffic moving South is brought to a crawl and backs up all the way to Norman

North 5 St - North 4 Pl - Kent Ave

There are *constantly* cars double parked right in front of this building and the traffic light, forcing everyone driving East to drive on the wrong side of road into oncoming turning vehicles.

Wythe Ave - South 6 St - Broadway

In the morning rush hour there are non-stop trucks and vehicles trying to cram down Wythe ever since Kent was changed to only run North. Drivers constantly cut off others and don't obey right-of-way when turning left onto Wythe from Broadway and large multi-axle trucks get stuck all the time turning down Wythe because cars are parked right until the end of the block.

Nassau Ave - Manhattan Ave - Leonard St

This is a one way street on only one block on Nassau Ave (btn Manhattan Ave & Leonard St.). It has a double solid yellow line indicating it's a 2 way street...but it's only 2 ways for buses. It's misleading and creates a potential hazard for those driving, biking and crossing the street. More signage is needed ASAP..or just make it 2 -ways for everyone.
