New Four Way Stop In Liberty A Randolph County crossroads will convert to an all-way stop later this month to improve safety. Weather permitting, flag operators for the N.C. Department of Transportation will manage the traffic flow while the intersection of Liberty Grove and Richland Church roads is converted from a twoway stop to a four-way stop. The change is scheduled for June 20. The current pattern requires traffic on Richland Church Road to stop at the intersection. According to a statewide study, intersections converted to all-way stops showed a 68 percent reduction in crashes, with a 77 percent drop in crashes involving injuries or fatalities. Warning signs of the upcoming change already have been posted near the intersection. As a reminder, drivers approaching an all-way stop should follow these rules: The first vehicle at the intersection has the right of way; • When two or more vehicles reach an intersection at the same • time, the vehicle to the right has the right of way and may go straight or, if legal and after signaling, turn left or right; When two facing vehicles approach an intersection • simultaneously, both drivers can move straight ahead or turn right. If one driver is going straight while the other wants to turn left, the driver who wants to turn left must yield; and Even with the right of way, drivers should remember to use • appropriate turn signals and watch for pedestrians and other vehicles.
