#OneMoreSignWillFixIt
If you want to prevent people from crashing on their bikes,
it's more effective to make the bridge surface non-slippery
than to put up signs warning that the bridge surface may be slippery.

Is this a sub-skeet about a DOT that thinks #OneMoreSignWillFixIt ?
January 16, 2025 at 9:30 PM

#OneMoreSignWillFixIt
Of course, the official "solution" to this problem is also ... a sign. Just not a DIY one.

There have been multiple requests for #SafeRoutesToSchool sidewalks here.

Instead, MCDOT added signs, cuz #OneMoreSignWillFixit.
On Thurs 8/28/25 3:55 pm
the driver (57/M) of a 2025 Freightliner B2 106 electric school bus
going east on Woodcrest Dr at Melinda Ln
hit but did not injure a distracted child (5/M)
crossing not at an intersection, “dart/dash”.🙄
Police (MCP94190064) did not find anyone at fault.

Needs ANOTHER sign telling drivers to yield to pedestrians.

MCDOT's infrastructure review recommendation:

1. Recommend installing “Turning Vehicles Yield to Pedestrians” signs on signal mast arm displays
for all approaches.

(Not explained: how #OneMoreSignWillFixIt will work with distracted drivers.)
On Tues 5/7/2024 4:05 pm
the driver (73/F) of a 2011 BMW X3
turning left from Wayne Ave to Fenton St
while "looking away from task"
hit & injured a teenager (15/F) in a marked crosswalk.
Police (MCP2799007T) did not find anyone at fault
and noted the teenager was "inattentive" (talking/listening).

Maybe it needs two signs.

#OneMoreSignWillFixIt ⤵️
MD SHA can't pretend to mitigate the hazard with a "turning traffic yield to pedestrians" sign here (Oakview Dr/New Hampshire Ave), because there already is a sign.🤷

They could protect William B Gibbs ES walkers by separating the left turn phase from the WALK phase. But that would cause vehicle delay! So instead, a sign.¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #OneMoreSignWillFixIt
MCDOT's Safe Routes to School "infrastructure" crash review:

-field observation: left turn on🟢across WALK
-finding: no deficiencies contributing to crash👀
-maintenance recs "not related to crash": repaint crosswalks, realign curb ramps
-sign "enhancement" rec: Turning Vehicle Yield To Pedestrians🙄
On Wed 10/16/24 3:46 pm
the driver (50/F) of a 2021 Mercedes GLC-Class
who was turning left
from Royal Crown Dr to Observation Dr
hit & injured a pedestrian (40/F)
who was going to William B. Gibbs ES at dismissal time.
Police (MCP3037006L) found the driver at fault: failed to yield ROW.

Q: What does it mean when there's a CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP sign under a stop sign at a 4-way intersection with 2-way stop?

A: It means the intersection should be a 4-way stop, but the DOT said no.

The best example of #OneMoreSignWillFixIt is with the school safety audits.

Problem: people are ignoring the no-parking signs.
Solution: more no-parking signs.

This intersection is not a four-way stop, because that would delay drivers on Old Hundred Rd/109. Instead, #OneMoreSignWillFixIt ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Per the MD State Highway Administration, the 355/Federal Plaza intersection needs:

❌No Turn On Red
❌Leading Pedestrian Intervals
✔️“Turning Vehicles Yield to Pedestrians” signs, of course!

Note the "turning vehicles yield to pedestrians" sign.

When you see one of those, you know that somebody asked a DOT to do something to make the intersection less dangerous for people who are walking, and the DOT responded by ... putting up a sign.

DOTs could install left turn on green arrow only (exclusive protected left turn phasing). But then drivers would have to wait longer at the signal! So they go with #OneMoreSignWillFixIt, instead.
Good morning to everyone who knows why DOTs put up "Turning Vehicles Yield To Pedestrians" signs.
August 21, 2024 at 6:03 PM
The infrastructure review does not recommend marking the unmarked crosswalk.👀

Also: "Vehicles are parked along Public House Road on both sides of the street despite the “No Parking” signs." #OneMoreSignWillFixIt
August 4, 2025 at 12:28 PM
In school area reviews, MCDOT has been a firm proponent of #OneMoreSignWillFixIt. For example,

Problem: parents park where there are NO PARKING signs.
Solution: more NO PARKING signs!

Not making this up.
October 24, 2025 at 1:43 PM
Expect the Safe Routes to School infrastructure review to include a recommendation for a Turning Vehicles Yield To Pedestrians sign.

Exclusive protected left (left on green arrow only) would inconvenience drivers/cause vehicle delay.

"the motorist was bypassing the vehicles stopped for school traffic and had obstructed visibility when the incident happened...The visibility obstruction is likely due to vehicles parked too close to the intersection in violation of existing parking restrictions."

Yet again, a driver has crashed into the beg button pole for crossing Clopper Rd/117 on the west side of the Germantown Rd/118 intersection.

And maybe it's even true that #OneMoreSignWillFixIt - but MD SHA hasn't put up the sign yet.🤷

"There is nothing before the crosswalks to alert motorists that humans might be present in the roadway."

Not so! There's a sign! #OneMoreSignWillFixIt

Guess what happened at the intersection of Gaither Rd & Piccard Dr between June 2021 (image on left) and September 2022 (image on right)?

In 13 months at MD28 & Baltimore Rd in Rockville,
THREE non-motorists (pedestrian, bicyclist, scooter user)
who were crossing in a crosswalk with a walk signal
were hit by drivers turning left.

But MDSHA says:

❌ "a protected left turn phase is not currently warranted"
