    I see this and think to myself, huh, this has happened multiple times in the past-- I wonder how the road might be encouraging drivers to go this fast?

    checks google maps streetview

    No streetlights, no reflective signs near the turn (there are signs if you are heading south), the road is completely straight leading up to the turn, and the lanes look huge (can fit nearly two cars in one lane).

    And they are wondering why this happens?
