Description

At the intersection of Billy Graham Pkwy and Morris Field Drive if you are traveling towards the West Blvd and Tyvola area a lane opens up for traffic turning into Morris Field Drive. A sign at the intersection says this lane must turn right, however, drivers can continue going straight and attempt to merge into the other lane given about 100 feet to do so. There should be no continuation of this lane if it is a turn lane only for Morris Field Drive. There is no such lane continuation for West Blvd and it has the same sign. On my daily commute into Charlotte this lane has nearly caused quite a few accidents on more than one occasion. I've had to veer into the other lane before and recently an impatient driver almost veered right into me when attempting to use this small portion of lane as a passing lane. It is going to cause a severe pile up one day especially with the 55mph posted speed limit and from now on I will continue to put my car half way into this lane when traveling to avoid others from attempting to use it as a passing lane.
