"The community does agree."No, they don't. "If you were at the protest, you would have had heard speaker after speaker ask how long will it take the City to clean the medians based on past experience which was three days after the last storm. They stated for example hat the bank cleared the sidewalk days before the city cleared the snow." Single instances are not indicative of trends, Furthermore, bus stops don't come with commercial banks at each one, so such does not really have an effect overall. "So according to you we first have to wait for fatalities before the city realizes median bus stops are dangerous." Since they aren't dangerous, yeah, that would be a prerequisite. Median bus stops are found around the world. There has been no mass extinction of humanity in those cities. "One resident stated that the day before the protest a car hit another and one of them ended up the median." That sort of thing happens on occasion. On sidewalks. Where is the data saying medians have such happen any more than sidewalks do? "If people were waiting there for a bus, they would have been injured or killed." Potentially, just like they would if that happened on a sidewalk. "The residents who see the conditions every day ARE MORE RELIABLE THAN THE SO-CALLED DOT EXPERTS who are only in the neighborhood when they are collecting data. " You identified the key reason why you are entirely wrong. DOT has data because DOT COLLECTS DATA. Residents DO NOT COLLECT DATA, NOR DO THEY CONSISTENTLY HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE TO PROPERLY ANALYZE SAID DATA. |
