The new timing of the lights and left turn arrows are going to cause many wrecks. People with a yellow arrow will naturally think oncoming light is red. Lots of us talking about that intersection! The arrow should be BLINKING RED.

I'm wondering who these people are that will "naturally" think that a blinking yellow light means oncoming traffic is red? Where on earth is there a blinking yellow light like that? People need to learn how to navigate these new lights as they are going up all over the county. There have been similar lights up for awhile now in nearby intersections and drivers have learned how they operate without much problem. Here is a Michigan.gov link to help drivers with the new signals and the brochure they provide to help explain the changes;

My wife and her friend came home the other night and my wife mentioned to me that her friend, who was driving, made the left on the yellow blinking light without hesitating. My wife mentioned to her that oncoming traffic had a green light. Her friend had no clue that it would be that way.
Yes, once again, she was in the wrong, but this light will fool many people.
Just this morning, there was a rollover accident at this intersection. Not sure how it happened, but I wonder if it had anything to do with this light.
Regardless of what we should know and what we should do, I predict that this light is set up in a manner that will see many, many injury accidents at this intersection. Vehicles are going to be broadsided by other vehilces traveling 40+ mph. It WILL continue to happen.
