backup on southbound 101. neighbors who live on and around this area, they tell the san mateo daily journal that they feel trapped in their own homes during the commute because the roads are just so jammed with cars. something that's gotten worse over the past couple of years. then there's the problem of what to do if there's an emergency and ambulance or fire truck needs to get in. residents are asking the city for help. the journal reports the city is looking at additional signs and changing timing on lights at the intersection peninsula and north bay shore boulevard. neighbors would also like a no left turn sign at south norfolk and east third avenue which they believe will make the short cut not worth while for commuters which the city in their opinion has not sign on to yet. another option is having a city encourage waze to stop drektding directing drivers here. the problem of commuters being diverted through neighborhoods by driving apz like waze, not only a problem here in the peninsula but places like fremont, installed new no turn
