Deskripsyon
People driving north on Ashford Dunwoody are continually turning left at the Mt. Vernon light in front of people trying to exit the Branches neighborhood. More recently they are becoming more aggressive with this illegal turn where three and four cars will turn left once the light turns, causing those driving straight out of the neighborhood to hit their brakes to avoid a collision with an illegal left turning vehicle that is not yielding to oncoming traffic. The Dunwoody police should monitor this intersection and issue tickets to decrease this behavior.

We live in Dunwoody West and its remarkable how on an daily basis there isn't a wreck as a result. I don't know if signage at the light would help but it can't hurt. Something needs to be done before a serious accident occurs.

The so called improvements made to this intesection some years ago have only made things worse. The big sign is so far back to the south that no one connects it to mean this intresection. The microscopic overhead signs designating appropriate lanes are no larger, just green instead of white. Trail Ridge is narrower so right turning cars have to wait behind cars going south or turning left. Plus northboud car on Ashforf Dunwoody can't see any cars in line but the first one. Light timing in all directions is awful. and police inforcement is nonexistant.
Yes, something needs to be done.

Actually the problem is this - some genius gave them a turn lane without a turn arrow - a rare situation to be sure. Obviously nobody can read the yield sign, since installing that has never helped the situation. Even worse are the folks turning left out of the straight lane assuming since Mt. Vernon is two lanes wide (for only 20 feet) they can go ahead and make that a double left turn. I would be happy to lose those infernal Bradford Pears that muck up the intersection for a turn lane with an arrow getting out of the neighborhood.

If the police want to patrol I say have a look at the neighbors coming out of Oak Trail Rd that RUN through the stop sign trying to bet the cars coming up Trailridge Way to the red light.

In answer to Mr. Grossman the conflict in reporting resulted from a boundary overlay with both the PCID in this area and DeKalb County in the area around the DeKalb County Water Treatment Plant. That issue has been fully resolved however issues that were in that area have to be addressed one by one.
In regards to the issue raised the intersection contains a 'left turn yield on green' sign as mentioned in previous posts. It was thus turned over to the City of Dunwoody Police Department for possible enforcement measures. Thank you for your patience!
