almost killed here by speeding trucks
unsafe
scary place for walking
Soon enough some pedestrian is going to die here: cars/trucks run the red light at the on ramp, cars/trucks to avoid the light, drive in the 2nd (N) lane and illegally turn right after the pedestrian island. It's the wild west. Please close the BQE onramp. Cars/Trucks can turn on Furman and get on the BQE via Sands st. It would erase the bottle neck that now runs from the on ramp all the way up to Clinton. And again, soon enough, someone will die.
This road has no business being a truck route!
My car got hit here by a hit and run truck. Police said it happens all of the time here. Why is there no prevention?
Van Brunt is a small neighborhood street with so many pedestrians and cyclists. It is a marked cyclist route yet trucks aggressively drive and dominate the road.
This is a 5 way intersection. Trucks come speeding out of the container terminal while pedestrians have the walk sign. Trucks ignore the yield to cyclist and pedestrians sign existing the port.
So many speeding trucks run the light. There is an elementary school here and it is incredibly dangerous. Trucks also regularly park in the intersection blocking the crosswalk.
I imagine many commenters have singled out the absurd convergence of at least 5 lanes at this intersection. Might I also point out that the noise from frustrated drivers leaning on their horns is a nightmare for those who live at this point juncture and should be considered a health hazard. If the DOT would at least put a TRAFFIC AGENT!!!! there during a.m. and p.m. rush hours, this might make an improvement.
