DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 101: PROTECTING OUT OF CONTROL CARS FROM DOWNING LIGHT POLES

IS 100X MORE IMPORTANT THAN PROTECTING

HUMAN BEINGS FROM CRASHING CARS

Pedestrian epic fail recipe.

Put a streetlight pole in the sidewalk, not behind it.

Create a tripping hazard/uneven rolling surface for wheelchair users by putting the utility box next to the pole in the sidewalk.

Make up for the misdeed of blocking the sidewalk by adding a crappy extension that places vulnerable pedestrians inches from deadly traffic.

Neglect the shoddy sidewalk extension, so it crumbles – but never fix it.

Repeat…dozens if not hundreds of times along your city’s should be walkable, historic main street corridor.
