This is the most frustrating city I've ever driven in. The reason is: I've never been in a place that makes less of an effort to synchronize the lights. In real cities, there's an incentive to drive the speed limit because the lights turn green as you travel. Not so in New Haven.

Post Body

If anything, this city incentivizes gunning it because if you drive 65mph in a 25mph, you just might make the next light before it turns green. Also so often, you just sit at a red light for absolutely no reason because there's no oncoming traffic. So you'll have like ten cars all waiting at a red light. Do we even need a signal at these stops? Lastly, would it kill you to put up proper street signals that have the street signs? We need to bring this city into the 21st century. Surely there's a better way to engineer flow of traffic.
