The folks on this site would tell you to go to the next intersection and make a left turn there and have little concern for the normal flow of traffic. I mentioned a similar issue and was told to drive 2 blocks out of my way. When headed south on Hamilton street, somebody inevitably always wants to make the slanted left turn onto Ballston Ave in order to get to Broadway. The signal on the Hamilton street side is short enough as it is, and motorists can be tied up for several light transitions because somebody in front of them wants to turn left onto Ballston and there is to much opposing traffic headed north on Hamilton to allow it. This gets alot worse in the summer and I myself have sat there for 10 minutes. The existing road does not allow for a turning lane, or logistics for a turning signal at the light. There is no shoulder and you cannot drive around these motorists that are impeding the traffic flow. I feel left turns should be prohibited at this intersection.
