Roundabout rules of the road I’d like to add my two cents about the La Jolla roundabouts. First I’m glad that we have them. Europeans have long known that they work well. Unfortunately, in San Diego, not enough effort was made to educate drivers on how to use them correctly and safely. All four directions of a roundabout have yield signs, which means it’s necessary to slow down when approaching the intersection. Once there, yield to the car which arrives first or to the car on your right if it reaches the intersection at the same time as you do. Using turn indicators to signal your intentions once in the intersection not only shows courtesy, but also promotes safety. The rules apply to drivers on La Jolla Boulevard passing through the roundabout as much as they apply to drivers entering the roundabout from a cross street. The question is how to get drivers to slow down and yield at roundabouts. Speed bumps, anyone? Another comment: Hopefully, as more roundabouts are added throughout the San Diego area, appropriate vegetation will be selected. It should be short enough to provide excellent visibility of all other cars or pedestrians in the immediate area, throughout the lifetime of the plants. Paul Anderson, La Jolla Positive feeling goes sour I understand your organization supports La Jolla Concerts by the Sea. While I am sure the service they provide is nice, I think you should know that certain members of the organization act in inappropriate and unlawful ways. I was a visitor to your beautiful city and paid for guided scuba diving at La Jolla Cove. I parked at 6:30 in the morning on a Sunday, in a free space. Late in the morning an employee of the group approached me and demanded that I move my vehicle so they could have the space. I refused and they placed a sign in front of my vehicle indicating that it was a tow zone. They subsequently had my vehicle towed while I was shopping elsewhere in your town. The parking space was taken by what they said was a personal vehicle of one of the employees. The executive director of the group offered no apology and another member of the group said to my face that I was a jerk who deserved what I got. I think you should be aware that due entirely to the actions of this group, my otherwise very positive feeling toward your city had been entirely reversed. While I’m sure they concert was very nice, it is my personal opinion that the conduct of the employees of this group should make you reconsider your support for them. I thank you for your attention.
