Good morning TLS,

As a Prospect Street resident, I’d like to bring something we are all grappling with to the attention of your readers: the middle turning lane- otherwise nicknamed “the HOV lane”. Yes, when the morning routine comes, we are all in a rush.

However, there is no reason we have to literally fear making that left turn out of our blocks because of cars that speed straight through the middle lane.

Just this morning, a white vehicle sped through and missed hitting straight into another car that was making the turn by a second. This happens multiple times every morning.

It also should be noted that too many times these cars are not in the middle lane to turn, but they are there to cut around all the traffic as was the case this morning as well.

We all have places we need to get to, yet driving safely and responsibly is not something we can compromise on.
