[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just as an experiment this past weekend, we set out a cafe table and two chairs in the street just behind the slow street barricade at the end of our block on 48th street near Van Ness st. It was clearly apparent to anyone that it was being used as a place for people to gather or sit. Within an hour, a car had run into one of the chairs, smashing one of the legs badly. The slow streets need to be CLOSED streets. Only accessible to people who actually live ON that street. Cut-through traffic needs to be eliminated altogether. [/quote] But also, drivers who can't avoid crashing their car into a chair shouldn't be allowed on any road.[/quote] We may just get some yellow construction warning tape and block off one end of the street completely next time.
