Is It This Bad Elsewhere? How Do People Drive Where You Live?

I dont like city driving.
I dont speed, leave a safe distance in front of me and let people in constantly.
My older brother is a frantic city driver and he hates my driving.
But. Maxed out my merits on my licence. Makes it worth it for insurance and licence renewal.

The bridge near my house is getting rebuilt,one lane at a time. Traffic signals control it.
Sensors in asphalt used to control it.
Simple, stop on sensors and lights turn in a few minutes.
Its not that hard.
No, stop short or drive through and stop. You will sit there until someone with a brain comes along and triggers the signal.

There is a big sign and a stripe painted.
