Again last Friday I witnessed yet another accident ( three or four
cars were towed from the scene) at the awful intersection right near
the Warwick Beacon office - Church and Warwick .
It is not asking too much of the local paper to pay at least
as much attention to these things as the publisher's favorite hack
politicians.
The red light system at Church and Warwick was a designed for
the traffic condition of 4 decades ago. A RIPTA bus, about to turn
left at the intersection into Church Ave. must wait for some driver
coming in the opposite direction to yield . Fat chance !
Clearly there is a demand here for a green arrow -giving
the bus the clear right of way.
It foolish in busy traffic to leave always dangerous turning
to a driver's judgment. ( It is foolish ) .
A simple adjustment like this can prevent numerous accidents.
The Beacon should shine its rather dim lights on this situation.
This letter will be forwarded to the Providence Journal .
