Subic Freeports Pedestrian Danger Zone

Comment from a reader on "No Right Turn From Park N Shop":

What i find strange is why there is a stop sign there at all. I mean at the old main gate. One cannot turn left or right. there is no traffic joining from the left so why is it there ?

[The Subic Bulletin] That crossing is the highest pedestrian traffic area in the Freeport and while you shouldn't need a stop sign at a pedestrian crossing, if it wasn't there pedestrians would end up squished on the road, probably under and SBMA vehicle given they seem to be the worst at respecting pedestrian crossings.

And another:

Hey, here's a novel suggestion. Instead of installing traffic lights or building an overpass at the main gate intersection, why don't the SBMA police wake up and start directing traffic.

Whenever there is more than one car waiting at that intersection, the traffic officer should jump out there and get traffic moving. Instead, they just standing there trying to catch people coming to rolling stops or not wearing seat belts.

[The Subic Bulletin] Be careful what you ask for or you might just get it. Often, when they do direct traffic they give each direction such a long period of time that everyone gets hot under the collar anyway.
