    yea those traffic lights are a waste of money, all they do is cause more congestion from people not knowing what to do at them. What needs to happen is more businesses allow people to work from home and also have 4 day work weeks. Oh and another idea is not to allow any 18 wheelers cross into the perimeter or on 285 that are passing through atlanta during rush hour, have big parking lots outside of the perimeter where they park during the rush hour(s).

    I don't recall sensors be layed at the end of the onramps or in the freeway/expressway/highway lanes so I'm sure they are tied into the Georgia Navigator camera radar system to determine the flow...
    they are putting sensors on the onramps just to let you know

    lol

    you know that 18 wheelers are not even allowed inside 285 unless they have business in there right?

    if they are just going through Atl they have to take 285 i believe
