[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we need a lot more restrictions. Bethesda is still a deathtrap for cyclists and pedestrians. At the type of density we are now at, it does not make sense for everything to be built for cars rather than people.[/quote]

People are in cars and with the amount of density that MoCo is allowing, there needs to be common sense regarding roads.  I'm not suggesting pedestrians and cyclists take a back seat, but with more cars moving through the roads, The Powers That Be need to do a better job with traffic for everyone.

You're right! There also need to be a lot more signals for pedestrians, wider sidewalks, curb bump-outs, road diets, protected bike lanes, stop signs, reduced curb radii, speed cameras, red-light cameras, distracted-driving cameras, safer walk-to-school routes, narrower travel lanes, no-right-on-red restrictions, and so on. As you say, simply reducing speed limits is not the answer.[/quote]
