This is a one way street. Cars like to enter it backwards from Morgan Ave.

Gigantic puddle on NW corner. Cars must drive into the other lane to avoid it, pedestrians get splashed.
Drivers do not yield to the light and make turns well into red lights. Trucks blocking the intersection encourage other drivers to bypass them.
This intersection has become very crowded. You have pedestrians crossing, bike lanes in both directions, cars trying to make a turn off Kent Ave and cars also trying to cross along 4th Avenue to get to the residential buildings located on the pier. There needs to be better signage or a light to help direct traffic.
Since bikes can make left from 14th onto Kent, they should not have to cross channelized area to do so as that is generally illegal. There should be street marking indicating path for left turning bikes.
Bikes on 14th can go left onto Kent, but south bound cars on Kent get green arrow for turn onto 14th at same time with no clear right of way.

The bike lane on Grand Street should be separated from traffic (perhaps two-way on one side of the street like Kent Ave). Vehicles are constantly double parked and swerving into the bike lane. With the coming L train closure this crucial bike link to the Williamsburg bridge needs to be safe and secure for cyclists -- right now only the adventurous/ experienced feel safe here.
Drivers speed through Olive Street to avoid traffic on Bushwick Avenue. These intersections should have four-way stop signs, especially at Olive & Powers where the visibility is poor due to the angle.
The crossing of Grand St at Olive/Waterbury is extremely dangerous for pedestrians. Drivers perceive the crossing between Waterbury and Olive as "straight ahead" instead of a left turn through a pedestrian crosswalk. Drivers use this route as a bypass of traffic on Bushwick Ave and will speed right through the crosswalk since they do not perceive it as a left turn/yield to pedestrians. The crossing of Grand St on the east side of the intersection lacks a painted crosswalk despite the presence of pedestrian walk/don't walk signals. It's amazing more people have not been hurt or killed here.
