Yield to circle traffic. It’s as simple as watching your left, which is no different than most intersections that have a “Yield” signage upgrade to the usual “stop on red before turning right” traffic law for right turns.

With that said, the most difficult maneuver in my experience is making a 90 degree left turn. That requires going 270 degrees around the circle, past two exits, before arriving at the desired circle exit. But, once you do it once, it’s a piece of cake afterwards.

What Wendy said. You can kill/trap coyotes, but until whatever attracted them to the area in the first place is taken care of, they will come back. Unlike humans, they don’t communicate with each other regarding missing brethren.

One coyote says to another, “Hey, did you know Carl went missing over on Trinity near Twain’s the other day ? That’s become a rough area. We better avoid it.’

LOL. Yeah, that bear is indeed Toy Story 3 brought to real life. That’s one of the best, non-staged “Easter Eggs” in a photo I’ve ever seen.

Just like pets left to roam freely, coyotes are not natural to this area and are destructive to the wildlife that is.
Removing either from the area is a marvelous idea.

Look closer. Love the bear crushed in the seam of the truck in the photo! Toy Story 3 reference, if you don’t have kids and haven’t seen it. Happy Trashy Holidays everyone.

I didn’t know where to post this so this seemed as good a place as any. Someone asked about hiring someone to install Christmas lights last week and I just received a Groupon for a carriage ride in Piedmont Park and there was a half-off Groupon also listed for Christmas light install/removal in the Atlanta area. You should be able to find it if you search today’s Groupons.

Wow, that is one scary looking traffic circle! Makes my blood pressure rise just looking at the picture, and I’m only thirty five! What about our Seniors?
