There was a great initiative after Vision Zero was implemented to install the word "Look" with eyes in the crosswalk. It was a great reminder for those staring at their phones who were staring on the ground. So let's examine why they did that and what happened with it.They were installed under great fanfare and was only done because NYCDOT received a $50,000 federal grant to do it and it didn't cost them anything and was great Vision Zero publicity. But due to DOT's gross incompetence, either the material used was defective or the installation was improper and all of the signs immediately began to peel off. Within only THREE MONTHS, they were all gone. So did the DOT ever figure out what went wrong? NO. Did they ever reinstall the decals? No. Why? BECAUSE THERE WAS NO MORE FEDERAL MONEY AND THEY REALLY DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT PEDESTRIAN SAFETY. All they cared about was their press release and the publicity they got from it. |
