    I watched this unfold , that exit/entrance is a danger to all, you cannot see when you are coming from the rotary onto President ave., as well these motorcyclists use the rotary all summer long as a race track ,they go around and around for hours until the wee hours of the morning at ridiculous speeds, I often hope one or more of them crash and burn ,idiots
