HOWEVER IT IS STILL A SMALL MINORITY. Most drivers drive safely and responsibly in this city.Proff? Because that certainly is not what I see. If that were not the case there wouldn't be under 200 pedestrian fatalities each year. It would number in the thousands or tens of thousands if the majority of drivers were careless and uncaring about human life as you keep alluding. (1) There's no reason to believe that driver carelessness would result in that many pedestrian fatalities every year. (2) I've never said they were uncaring about human life. And how we dare inconvenience pedestrians. That would be a no-no. We inconvenience pedestrians all over the place, everywhere, for the benefit of motorists... All the diagonal pedestrian crossings on Queens Blvd should be reengineered so they are done at right angles to shorten pedestrian crossing times and improving traffic flow. But heaven forbid if pedestrians are required to walk an extra fifty feet to accomplish that. ...and the occasional counterexample doesn't change that. |
