**Frustration Grows Over Long Left-Turn Waits at Riverview-Trenton Intersection**
RIVERVIEW, MI — Tensions are simmering at the busy intersection of King and Grange Roads, straddling the border of Riverview and Trenton, as drivers express their frustration with drawn-out waits for left turns. Local residents and workers report escalating incidents of risky maneuvers, raising serious safety concerns.
Witnesses describe a growing trend of impatient drivers taking matters into their own hands. “I see it every day,” said Riverview resident Sarah Thompson. “Cars are darting around the ones waiting to turn left, creating a dangerous situation for everyone on the road.”
Traffic congestion at this intersection has been a longstanding issue, with many attributing the bottlenecks to the high volume of commuters during peak hours. Drivers have been left hoping for a light to change, only to find themselves losing patience and resorting to hazardous passing attempts. Video footage captured by local residents reveals cars speeding past waiting vehicles as they attempt to navigate the gridlock, sometimes inches away from colliding.
Local workers, like Timothy Hayes, who frequently commutes through the intersection, have echoed similar sentiments. “It’s nerve-wracking. You can almost see the impatience in the drivers’ faces. You never know when someone’s going to try to cut in,” he remarked.
Safety advocates are calling for action, urging local authorities to consider solutions like enhanced traffic signals or dedicated left-turn lanes to ease congestion and prevent potential accidents. “Something needs to change before someone gets hurt,” said one concerned community member.
As frustration continues to mount, residents hope that their voices will lead to timely improvements at this notorious intersection, ensuring safer roads for all.
