VIDEO: PD Enforcing New Traffic Signs Around Town

VIDEO of Officers Richard Stanick and David Sussman educating and enforcing the law this afternoon, after the new traffic sign at Clifton and 3rd Street, was put up. This sign is among the many signs now going up around down-permitting only right turns through most of the day-in an effort to ease traffic congestion. (See yesterday’s article on TLS). There is a grace period before the police issue summonses. (As soon as we receive the list of all the new traffic signs, we will post it).

  1. if you can’t see those signs which are hanging under the stop sign, you need glasses or should not drive. Maybe that is why there are so many accidents in Lakewood, no one looks at the signs while they are yakking on the cell.

  2. I think someone needs to check out the time of traffic. 7am to 7pm is too long of a time not to be able to make left turns or go straight!

    THIS IS CRAZY hoe are you supposed to cross clifton

    Try Walking, or even better grow wings!!!

  4. It’s not thet difficult – turn right and then turn left at the next intersection. Better yet, approach Clifton on a street which intersects at a light.

  5. THIS IS THE DUMBEST THING IN THE WORLD BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL JUST DRIVE AN EXTRA FEW BLOCKS TO GET TO WHERE THEY NEED THEY WILL BE MORE CARS ON THOSE CRAMED STREETS AND JUST MAKE THINGS MORE BACKED UP MAKING JUST MORE TRAFFIC THIS IS CRAZY STOP IT NOW WHERES SOME ONE THAT UNDERSTANDS THE ABC’S OF TRAFFIC PLEASE COME TO THE RESCUE EVERY BLOCK ON MADISON NOW HAS 20 CARS WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AFTER THEY WERE FORCED TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN THE BLOCK BEFORE WHERES THE BRAINS

    what then all the traffic will be squeezzed into one lane very smart

  8. ok thats a good income for the twsp why dont they put up more sighns or make arows on the floor or from 2 to 7pm ?? who aproved it lol i thought when they made the yellow lines wow the twnso is spending but in no time they will be making back the money !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how much is the ticket?

  9. Poland: Yes, a single lane at 2nd, 4th, 6th & 9th with a protected left signal. You know, like it is just about everywhere else on the nine that you’re allowed to turn left.

  10. crazy . now when you can find parking on 2nd you will have to go to 4th and wait at the light for eternity to make a left towards 2nd.. someone is not thinking. also signs needs to be bigger and placed on both sides of the street as its one way on 3rd.

  11. to anonymous at 9:12, it was advertised in the public notices after it was approved at a committee meeting by the committee members. Ask MM or ML. Or go to a meeting. I didn’t see any cops eating donuts in the video or double parked police cars in it.

  12. Lets just wait and see how traffic will be when the population doubles. You think we have troubles now? Take a town full of people who talk on the phone while driving, not paying attention or caring if they obey the law and double it. Good luck Lakewood!

  13. What this sign says is right turns are only permitted on weekdays between 9 AM & 6 PM, its says nothing to prohibit you from going straight or turning left at any time. The sign needs to have an arrow going straight with a line through it or a Do Not Enter for going straight and don’t turn left during specific hours. Given a court case I wonder if this sign would be just cause for a fine.
