We started our afternoon by having the Rail Road Crossing stuck in the down position:We followed that up with a funeral procession for a police officer, may he rest in peace. You might have seen a lot of police motorcycles driving by. (No picture of this one).To make things a little more lively in the afternoon someone thought shoplifting at Walmart might be fun. Three police officers responded seen here:And to top it all off there was a wreck involving two vehicles in the intersection nearby: 4951

All in all my inbox was flooded with complaints about the traffic and reports of the nearly simultaneous four occurrences of police activity. Thank you to my legion of informants for providing pictures and details. I love you all, please stay safe out there. 4951

I'm just going to stay in my little cocoon called my house and let my kiddos fend for themselves getting to and from school and daycare, I think.
 
FTR - that interssection by the Walmart is BAD. Hell, any of those intersections along North Park is like playing a massively hyped-up on crack game of Frogger. 4951

This is why I live on the West side of 59! Now that we have the new Kroger, I can avoid bad traffic like a boss! 4951

There should be a light at the intersection by Walmart and the one at Hidden Pines/Woodridge Forest entrance (by the Catholic Church). Lights because people don't understand the concept of a 4 way stop. 4951

Not to mention that they are doing construction at the front of Northpark close to 494.  Traffic was backed up a long way at 9:30 this morning.  Does anyone know when they will be finished with it?  It looked like they were just sprucing up the median, but they had it down to one lane. 4951

@wyliejen: Yes, apparently they think you just stop, then go. No, you wait your turn. I watched a truck next to me yesterday pull up to the stop next to me. The other three directions should have gone first, as we had just pulled up to our sign. He stopped, then pulled out, with no regard for the other vehicles. The other vehicles had to stop mid intersection to avoid hitting him. And he just went blithely on his way. That's not how this works!!
