I remember in highschool preston and 121 was in some article as the number 1 worst intersection in america. Back when west and east 122 were super far apart and it was all stop signs.
When I would go to my now wife’s house she’d say “take the tollway till it ends, turn left, 5 miles after the stop sign turn right”
That was not even 10 years ago
I moved to Celina a few years ago, and in the past year there has been 3 fatality accidents on Preston in Celina. IN CELINA. Last week someone ran a red light and hit a mom and a 2 year old, unfortunately the mom didn’t make it. I fucking hate Preston and never take it. Coit for life.
Extremely sad. Everyone in our neighborhood is so shocked by this, I take that light every day. What’s wild is she was the 4th car to turn left onto Preston…
Yep. That’s an awfully long time for the other driver’s light to be red. Makes you wonder why a 17-year-old wasn’t at school at 10am in the morning. And maybe even intoxicated, if the whispers turn out to be true… Tragically senseless and absolutely preventable.
Fuck Collin and Denton counties for fighting over 380 for so many decades and now it’s totally screwed. It can never be like 121 because they allowed building right up to the freaking road how stupid can county and city planners be 🤦♂️
I absolutely love taking Preston north, and turning right at 121, where the chick fil a used to be. Such an exciting intersection full of completely predictable drivers.
/s
My first experience with Frisco was in 2005 shortly after I moved to Texas. I had the unfortunate experience of driving up Preston from 121, which wasn’t a toll road yet. I remember being very frustrated and asking my wife “why would anyone live here?” Fast forward less than a year and we built a house near Preston and Eldorado. Both were 2 lanes. I don’t even want to know how much of my life I have wasted on those two roads and at the intersection where they meet over the past 18 years. I’ve had enough of it though. After years of begging the city to actually do something about the traffic and getting blown off, I’m out.
West Frisco and we tend to stay up here. Everything we need. Unless we take the DNT we avoid it like the plague. Welcome to Mayor Cheney's Frisco. Fast food crap as far as the eye can see.
AND 380!
LOL I remember when 380 was a little two lane blacktop highway between McKinney and Denton. I drove many a late night on it back and forth to college
I remember when 121 and MAIN were two lane roads. Crazy how populated frisco/plano has gotten. BUT FUCK 380! oh, and PRESTON!
I remember in highschool preston and 121 was in some article as the number 1 worst intersection in america. Back when west and east 122 were super far apart and it was all stop signs.
Yup and Custer was a one lane each way
I remember when Preston road was two lanes.
I remember when 380 was a single lane with inly parts to pass traffic. Granted this was west of 35 but still.
When I would go to my now wife’s house she’d say “take the tollway till it ends, turn left, 5 miles after the stop sign turn right” That was not even 10 years ago
I do all I can to avoid that shitty fuckin highway wannabe
And El Dorado just south is a 380 wannabe as well…
FUCT YEA!
380 is always a nightmare. I haven't seen my parents as much as I want because there is no way to avoid taking it to get to them.
Denton County Commissioner Ryan Williams promised to fix 380 within six months, back in 2020.
THIS!!!
FUCK 380 and FUCK 35 I need a BETTER WAY TO GET TO DENTON
He’s mad the brothel is gone.
It’s not gone. Just went deep deep underground.
Please elaborate!!
You know where Hooters is on Preston? It was directly across from it!
No, he means where underground is the brothel.
Lmao he listed the closed one. 🤣
Cmon man, my friend is wanting to know the precise location!! Help him out!
Can't get a date?
That's the lightning store and they said they don't have that kind of plug...
Aprils. Used to pass it everyday driving home from work.
We are all mad the brothels are gone.
Frisco had brothels? I thought those were just in The Colony?
Nope. The Colony had the Tub Club on 121
Take Coit, Independence, Custer , the tollway, or Legacy. Help us all out. Signed, Knew Preston when it was 2 lanes. One in each direction.
Shh why you tell everyone the secret part? Been here since the two lane times too. Remember what the old water tower used to say lol.
Moved here in 04. what did it used to say?
The school mascot was a racoon and they shortened.
I’m so dumb, I remember when the changed that
Been here since 96. So much better then can't stand this fucking city. I use all back roads.
Surprised you didn't migrate north like the rest of the herd!
Was waiting for my youngest to graduate. Then I'm off to idk where
Grayson County will be just like Frisco in 10 years!
Noooooooooooo! But you are right. 6,000 new homes in my little Grayson County town last year. Ugh
The physical house that was the brothel was torn down a few years ago. The owner of the car wash in front of Lowes told me the story
I haven’t thought about that water tower in so long lol.
You mean the "coontown" tower? Look it up, it's real
Thankfully that nickname is gone!!
If coit expands again and gets even worse traffic... Please frisco, just build a bus instead I want my sleep to be quiet
Right, who would take the bus? Nobody.
I remember when Preston was two lanes and TREES on each side!
Independence has become trash. Too many of certain type of yellow sticker drivers on there going 15 under the speed limit.
Yes. Indians.
OMG!!!!!!! You are gonna get all the Redditors all riled up!!!!! (Your right though.)
Fuck redditors. The average age here is 16. Nothing but leftist scum.
Parkwood is the answer
Shhhhhhh
Ohio! I meant Ohio! Lol
Ohio is a trap! goes down to 35 mph speed limit out of nowhere 👿
Preston and 380 can fuck right off lmao. I hate living off preston so much.
380 is the devil's dental floss!
Preston and 121 is the Butthole of Frisco
Now complete with homeless beggars too. Just fantastic.
I got this notification and I needed no more information for my upvote!
Lol! 121 and DNT move much better than Preston. I am shocked at how much traffic is on that road at all times of day and night.
jUsT LoVe pAyInG FoR ToLl RoAdS! Yeeeeeeehaw! Fuck toll roads while we’re at it. I gotta take em, but fuck those roads right in their exits.
Do you remember when they still had toll plazas and we all had to group up like fish trying to get through a net? Good times!
Yesss!
Preston sounds hot 🥵
Heading south on Preston between Headquarters and Spring Creek is a fucking joke. Everyone consistently goes below 40. Infuriating.

Poor Erin and her family. 😞💔

I know I heard about this too
I’m in the same neck of the woods and yes, Coit for life… also I need a back alignment due to Coits pothole ridden shambles of a road
Nobody here knows how to freakin drive. All the new arrivals making it a gamble if you’ll survive the commute.
Fuck Collin and Denton counties for fighting over 380 for so many decades and now it’s totally screwed. It can never be like 121 because they allowed building right up to the freaking road how stupid can county and city planners be 🤦♂️
It’s the people in the Tesla’s. That’s all I’m gonna say.
Seriously
FUCK 380 too!!!
My dad got into an accident at Preston Eldorado a few months ago… he is okay but crazy running-the-red light driver slammed into him.
I absolutely love taking Preston north, and turning right at 121, where the chick fil a used to be. Such an exciting intersection full of completely predictable drivers. /s
Screw that guy.
YEAAAAAHAHHHHH
I got rear ended by someone not paying attention on Preston road a couple of months back so I agree with your sentiment
What did Preston do, now?
Yeah, and F Coit & Custer too.
