Comment on Local news did an entire segment featuring a guy who's mad about having to drive more carefully.
healthetank@lemmy.ca 6 days agoAre you a civil engineer or technician?
In my area MOST small residential roads will already require semis to turn into oncoming in order to make tight turns - this is not uncommon, and a reason there’s additional licensing for those vehicles. They have a wide turning radius and should know where and how to make that maneuver safely.
There’s nothing wrong with this setup - speaking as a civil engineer in road design.

Why do you give me only those two options lol?

Typically, civil engineers are the only ones who can stamp drawings, and the ones who take legal responsibility for the design. But I know there are some jurisdictions where eng techs can ‘design’ and take some level of responsibility, so wanted to leave that door open.
Something tells me you’re not in road design though, regardless of title.

No lol, I’m not in road design. I am a civil engineer, however.
