Insane that they don’t have a cop out there. Traffic was backed up onto the interstate earlier.

Meh. Nobody pays attention to traffic lights anyway.

They are waiting for NBA Youngboy’s crew to finish their next hit before starting work.

It is the mall. Isn’t that considered an NBR annex?

This must be a part of the illusive "Red Light Synchronization" that has mysteriously taken the City-Parish a decade plus to implement. They still haven't made it to Airline Highway apparently.

Illegally stolen from SG. Not in NBR.
Besides I like J Alexanders. You can get a good meal and watch a gangland shootout while you eat some carrot cake.

That light malfunctions a lot too. Sometimes it will just randomly go through 3 or 4 cycles without letting one side go and people will just start running it. I guess you really have no choice.

They do this monthly. At least this time they’ve been working. I usually don’t see anybody doing anything.

I’m all for anything to improve traffic, but the number 1 priority has to be teaching people not to block an intersection for an entire fricking light cycle. In turn the next 4-5 people who just sat through their entire green light cycle run the red and it builds. It’s an absolute shite show.

Also don’t get me started on the asshats at the 73 exit who come to a complete stop on the interstate bc they skipped the line and waited too long to cut in line.


Rant….over. Listeners, Thank you for your service.

I disagree with your number one issue. I think it is people not paying attention at a red light. It infuriates me to count to 5 or more waiting for the first person at a turn signal to begin moving, then there is always at least one more jackass that is STILL not paying attention after two or three cars start moving in front of them through the turn. So, a light that should allow 10 cars through, lets only 3 or 4 go, and your viscious cycle starts all over again.

Get off of Tik Tok at the traffic stop, damnit!

It’s gotten to where I give them 3 seconds and then I’m blowing my horn.

What's insane is how stupid and angry drivers are. It's a 4-way stop, it's not long division.

It’s the worst at bluebonnet @ Perkins, where people are turning left onto BB from Perkins, they’ll pile up in there when there’s no where to go , light goes red, and then no one can move because of those jack asses. The light at Perkins Rowe and the rouses shopping center are a big cause of it too, way too many cars on that small stretch in the afternoons

Three of the worst lights in BR
1. Bluebonnet @ Perkins
2. Perkins @ Essen
3. Perkins @ Lee
