Illegal turning
Susan from Henderson said she spotted several drivers traveling down the middle lane of eastbound Ione Road, then turning left onto Eastern Avenue rather than driving straight through the intersection.
“I think it’s because there are no markings on the road indicating that the lane is for straight-ahead traffic only, and turns are not allowed,” Susan said.
Henderson city spokeswoman Kathleen Richards said Ione is already striped correctly, noting that arrows are usually painted in turn lanes.
“A reasonable and prudent driver should be aware that a lane without marking at a signalized intersection is a through lane,” Richards said. In the meantime, the Henderson Police Department was asked to keep an eye on illegal turns at this intersection.
