Elbow @ 30th is idiotic, but that probably ties into the ridiculous "make the whole road a 40 KM/H zone and also a 30 KM/H playground zone" thing.

If anything, that's the best place to allow uncontrolled left turns; people are generally stuck going slow enough that they could react if a vehicle didn't clear the intersection due to a pedestrian crossing 30th while a turn was attempted.
