[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A 12 year-old should be able to cross the street, even a major intersection. I'm shocked as well.[/quote] Yes, a 12-year-old should be able to. But is this specific 12-year-old actually able to? That is the question.[/quote] ^^^Also the streets should be designed so that 12-year-olds (and 8-year-olds, and 6-year-olds, and anybody) can safely and conveniently cross them on foot. When I think of "major intersection", I think of something like crossing Rockville Pike on foot. I would not feel safe about a 12-year-old crossing Rockville Pike on foot by themselves, because I do not feel safe about myself crossing Rockville Pike on foot.[/quote]
