CITRUS HEIGHTS (CBS13) – A CBS13 viewer has a problem with a well-traveled stretch of roadway. In fact, she says turning into her neighborhood is one of the scariest things she’s ever done.

We talked with talk with Valerie from Citrus Heights who wants to know: “Why is Roseville Road marked the way it is?”

“Every time I come down Roseville Road to turn on to my street, it’s like…I can’t believe the marking or the lack of marking on this street…it’s so scary,” said Valerie.

Valerie’s fears are not unfounded. The stretch of Roseville Road she’s referring to, from Cirby Way to Antelope Road, has a combination of curves, different speed limits and a residential neighborhood off to one side. And that’s where the problem lies.

Every time Valerie needs to turn onto her street, the same thought pops into her head: “I hope nobody is on my tail,” she says.

I drive this stretch of road about once a week, and I can tell you two things: Number one, nobody goes the speed limit, they fly down this stretch. And two, if the car in front of you is making a left hand turn, you better pay very close attention.

When I turned left into the neighborhood, I wanted to see what that was like, and let me tell you, I was praying the drivers behind me would stop.

“It’s just too dangerous,” said Valerie.

What makes it so dangerous in Valerie’s eyes?

There are three different speed limits along this stretch. And on a two-lane road, drivers need to transition from 50 miles an hour or faster to a full stop when someone turns — all in a matter of seconds.

“I turn my turn indicator on way back when I’m coming this way,” she says. “I’d like to see the road marked.”

As we dug deeper, we discovered this area of Roseville Road falls under three different jurisdictions: The city of Roseville, Sacramento County and the city of Citrus Heights.

We reached out to all of those agencies and their answers were all the same. They said it’s not a quick fix, but they welcome input and will take a look at this specific stretch of Roseville Road.

Valerie is grateful someone is now listening, because after all: “It shouldn’t be a nightmare to drive this road,” she said.

Officials say they’ll be sending out engineers to take a closer look at that stretch of road.
