There's a cop in my town who sits at a church on school days and gives tickets to anyone who turns left onto the main road.

This problem could be solved by turning the road into a one way street going the other direction, by putting in traffic lights up instead of stop signs, by literally anything else other than him getting paid to sit there and bully people who are just trying to drop their kids off at school and get to work.

    Why is it illegal to turn left on that road? Are there signs saying no left turns?

    Yes there are signs. I'm assuming it's illegal because that road is always backed up with people waiting to turn in to get to the school to drop their kids off.

    I'm assuming they don't want people turning left out of there and making the traffic worse, but I can't help but feel there are better ways to solve this problem that pay a cop to sit there and yell at people over his intercom.

    He never bothers to get out and direct traffic and help solve the problem, just yells at people and gives tickets to people who can't hear him/turn left anyway.
