Hey, so this one when I was stopped, I had set out a reflector triangle and another vehicle ran over it, pushed it into the middle of the intersection, and I was not willing to go into the middle of the intersection to get it.

00:46
The route's plenty.

I think you can turn around down at the highway department building so it goes straight towards the fence to a K-turn there instead of using the turnaround.
