U-turn worse than right on red
I was driving to work at Biesterfield Road and Route 53 in Elk Grove Village. I had the arrow to turn right heading east on Biesterfield. As I'm turning, some yahoo decides to make a U-turn the same time I'm turning right on my green arrow. No accident occurred, thank goodness, so I called the Elk Grove police to complain, and what does the cop say: It's not illegal.
Well, neither is alcohol and it kills. This U-turn almost caused an accident. That will cause an accident more than not coming to a complete stop before turning right on a red light.
