[quote=Anonymous][quote]Will the changes reduce traffic fatalities? The District has been wrestling with increasing traffic fatalities in recent years, with 40 people getting killed on the streets last year. So far, 24 have been killed this year. The council, Bowser, and DDOT have tried a number of remedies to fix the issue, but nothing has reduced the statistics. Mendelson ultimately voted for the bill but wanted to see an analysis on whether banning right turns at red lights would actually address the problems. “We’ve been doing thing after thing after thing and we’re getting more accidents, more fatalities in this city,” he said. “We’re going the wrong way… and that’s what concerns me.”[/quote] From the DCist article[/quote]
