Other than "they ignored the sign", what is the issue? I don't break the rule, but I've never seen it cause an accident or even come close. As long as people are seeing no traffic on main street, to me it is the rule that's the problem. Getting additional cars off the bridge and out of the rt 8/34 intersection is a benefit.
The bigger issue I see is the right turn only lane by tailgator's driveway. The intersection is wide enough for there to be both a right turn only lane and a second straight lane from main to 34 - some people do that now and create a second lane of straight traffic. As busy as that intersection is, it's amazing how rare accidents there are...

That said, I have observed Derby Police pull over (and presumably cite) drivers making this illegal movement.
(BTW- I don't think CT Livable Streets Watch should be "Acknowledging" this issue, leaving local officials unable to resolve it on SCF. You have thousands of issues open and will probably not get to this for a very long time if ever)

This issue no longer exists - with new construction there are now only 2 eastbound lanes (instead of the 3 that existed when this issue was filed) and a small island has been installed so you can only turn right from the right lane and left from the left lane.
This issue should be "Closed" but CTLSC has it locked up
