Wake Forest Road and I-440 interchange, complex and nasty intersection

Wake Forest Rd, My path from Home to Greenway

Passing through here 4 times a day has taught me how to exploit the light sequences. I also feel safer on the bicycle than in a car. This is a high accident area because of the long lights and people want to squeeze through when it is stupid to do so.

Returnin home, Northbound at peak rush hour has always been a concern, however after doing this for several months, my experience convinces me that it is easier to get through here in a timely manner on a bicycle. I seem to get a lot of timing breaks and an occasional very polite driver to help me get through her quite nicely. Of course my knowing the sequence of the lights is quite helpful.
