Default Eye-Witness - Florida Traveler Advisory - Bushnell, FL

From a friend:

There is an exit from Walmart onto CR48, right turn only, with permanent
yellow posts in the pavement preventing the eastbound traffic from turning
onto the westbound lane. At the end of the yellow posts are 2 large and
very
visible "NO U Turn" signs. It is a 2 lane un-divided road with a centre
turn
lane.


Well, Joe. Those signs, if in fact there are signs, were NOT
installed when I and many others were ticketed. I wish I had a photo
for comparison.


I'm not your adversary BTW, I was simply posting info that was forwarded to
me after I provided your info to a global motorcycle touring group I'm a
part of. One of those guys is the author of my comments.

I'd also love the link to your photos please... Didn't see that and would
love to send that link to my contact.

They were probably installed after a 7 month court battle and my
complaints to the FDOT. As shown in the photo posted earlier, signs
were NOT installed at that time.


Could be... If that is the case, and you still feel wronged, go back and
make your case that it was their lack of proper signage that caused the
problem.

If anyone does a U-turn at the end of the yellow posts, they deserve a
ticket, IMO


If in fact the signs are where you claim, then they meet the
requirements of the MUTCD and are legal. And visible.

About 800 feet further east is another exit from Walmart, with traffic
lights and no turn restrictions.


And a stranger to the area exiting the Wendys is to know this how?
A better question is why they are needed at all. I've never seen more
than 3 cars on that road, even on a Monday afternoon.


(Sarcasm on) Our job is not to question big brother but to be assimilated
without any struggling. Freedom to think logically, to critically test
everything to see if it is legitimate and to be able to speak about what we
find disappeared decades ago. (Sarcasm off)
