Not heavy urban here, but on a quiet bypass of the Roundabout eastbound/ south side
I was not far enough to the left on the 1 way single lane, take the lane situation,
[just past the holding tank dump for the trailer towing tourists],
I usually turn to the left onto the sidewalk, and back track to the Crossing,
to see oncoming traffic , before I cross..

so I swung to the right to make the left turn, just as some one in a Car,

was about to pass me on the left side.

. . . . .

seems every year someone gets taken out in the crosswalk, downtown, 2 one-way lanes.

car stops for a pedestrian crossing, the car behind them changes lanes and accelerates ,
just as the pedestrian begins to cross into that lane..


I make sure traffic stops in Both Lanes before using the crossing.

4 lanes + a center Island was made, when the Roundabout replaced
the T intersection of OR 202 & US 30/101, west end of town..
