If all I need is a prescription or want a quick diagnosis, I'd much rather use video chat to see a doctor than go to an urgent care clinic. Plus, it's typically cheaper!

Yes, as long as my insurance still applied.

Tom Fosdick

In this communications age, with atmospheric pollution driven by constant useless travel back and worth, staying at home and using Telemedicine just makes sense.

Sam Ackerman

I would try it. But I bet their most common answer will be to come in and see a doctor.

Pam Falcioni

Not only would this save me money, but being able to avoid the germ-filled waiting room would be a huge benefit.

Carol Fulkerson

I agree with the pro of avoiding the lobby that's a petri dish.

I'd much rather see a doctor in person. It feels more secure, more personal, and more private.

Many times we need hands on exam for diagnosis. Telemed might be fine for followup with Dr. with back and forth discussion about symptoms, meds, side effects since exam.

Of course not, trump will make America great again!

I am glad that we were Blue over all on the West coast. Those flyover states have too much say.

I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.

You're literally bumper to bumper from the Bill Healy bridge. The people from the Old Mill Never Cease coming.

If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.

Jeff Sanders

The people coming from the Old Mill Never Cease coming. Traffic is backed up to Bill Healy bridge everyday. At least in the winter.

Dennis Douglas

If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.

SUE ABERNATHY

Isn't that why they put the round about in because stop lights were going to cost to much????? Just saying.

sara kreps

doesn't this defeat the purpose of a roundabout? might as well make it a regular intersection with lights.

Kathy Brown

Make a LARGER round-about!! A stop light will only make it worse!!

Chris Gonzales

A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!! City waste at its Best!

The point of the roundabouts was to get rid of lights

Fletcher Jackson

What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.

Tim Walker

I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
