<div>Don't our taxes pay for police enforcement for traffic conditions? Either, town, county or state, someone is responsible for upholding the law. Let's get the proper authorities down there and start passing out tickets or citations. Surely that would help. Maybe we can supply morning donuts and coffee at the Calvert House as an incentive?</div>

<div>Isn't the construction related to the new extra left turn lane from Rte 1 northbound to west East West Highway? Ideally that is supposed to alleviate this mess.<br>
<br>
</div>
And thanks for letting people know the secret way past Dupont, Sarah. :P This morning there were about 10 cars waiting to make the left onto Rte 1, so I don't know how much longer it will be a viable option.<br>
<br>
</div>
Jen, I'm sorry that folks were jerks this morning. It is really frustrating to have to break laws just to get from point A to point B.<br>
