Don't even bother honking at me: I refuse to make a right turn on red coming out of the Longwood Shopping Center onto Route 1. There's just not enough sight distance to see oncoming cars speeding toward you on Route 1, especially those in the far-right lane, which is supposed to be a turning lane but which impatient motorists use as their own private passing lane. It's a horrible intersection.
Twenty years ago -- when the Coffeeklatsch gentlemen still met at the Longwood Inn -- I remember seeing a plan depicting that stretch of Route 1 as it could be if every property were developed. It showed new traffic lights, new shopping centers and a greatly widened Route 1. It seemed highly unlikely back then, but sure enough, it has come to pass in every detail.
