<p>Here he is, taken this morning. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Here he's helpfully waving me through but just as often he completely doesn't see me coming.</p>

<p>I have no clue if this guy is legit or not, but the City has sent out traffic enforcement people in the loop/west loop area in the past to direct traffic (instead of CPD) at problem spots. They wore pretty distinct vests back then that said traffic management, along with a pretty standard traffic uniform </p>
<p>I haven't seen it in a while, but they were fairly common 5 to 10 years ago during rush periods. And, unsurprisingly, they often created as many problems as they solved. </p>

<p>I'm constatntly concerned that this guy is going to wave forward one of those vehicles exiting the expressway while I'm passing in front. I don't have a stop sign, they don't stop if traffic is backed up from the light. It's a terrible intersection. The only possible solution I can suggest is a light, hopefully with a camera. It would be much safer than this guy. He hasn't been there for two day though, so now it's back to fully unregulated chaos.</p>

<p>Write him a letter expressing your concerns and hand it to him so you don't distract him with a conversation. Maybe print out bicycle and applicable vehicle traffic laws.</p>
