Re: Signal priority in NYC

The goal should always be to avoid the collisions in the first place,

There has been a reduction of occupant deaths and injuries since the 1960's (Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed.) The reason for this decrease has not been a reduction in collisions. Collisions per vehicle-mile have increased. The reduction has been because of changes in automobile design.

Reducing pedestrian-automobile collisions is a worthwhile goal. It may not be the most efficient way to reduce pedestrian injuries and death.
