[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Slow streets seems like a poor substitute for things that already exist. If you actually want drivers to slow down, put in speed bumps. If you want space to do leisure activity, [b]who chooses the middle of the street — where some stoned out of his mind driver might run you down — over parks, yards and sidewalks? No one. [/b] Slow streets is a solution in search of a problem.[/quote] Lots of people, actually, in places where you don't have to worry that a stoned-out-of-his-mind driver will run you down. Of course, stoned-out-of-their-mind drivers also run down people who are in parks, yards, and sidewalks, which strongly suggests that it's drivers who are the danger, not streets.[/quote] I’ve never seen anyone use a slow street for anything other than driving and parking. It’s pointless.[/quote] Things happen that you don't see.[/quote]
