Amoeba's have more intelligence than MoDot

I would like to know why the traffic signals along Olive, in front of Monsanto at old olive have been changed from sensor activated signals to timed signals? It is incredibly annoying to now have to wait for a red light on Olive when the lights are green for cross traffic that does not exist.

I have always felt that the collective intelligence at modot was about equal to an amoeba, and this kind of stupid, ignorant change in the way traffic signals function for no reason other than to inconvenience and irritate those of us that actually have to pass through those intersections on a daily basis, is proof of modot’s lack of intelligence and complete disregard for the motorists.

It always amazes me when I read an article in the paper or hear something on the news about how modot is “surprised” by the fact that most people in Missouri loath your bloated, arrogant, useless organization. Yet proof of how stupid modot is, can be found all over. From the really stupid design of Manchester Rd from 270 which has been the cause of numerous serious traffic accidents, west to traffic signals that now change to green for ghost traffic, modot is certainly consistently retarded.
