Traffic calming opponents either don't understand how street design saves lives, or they don't care.

Either way, never put a safety project up for Yes/No vote.

Too many people are willing to let others suffer so they might save a few seconds while driving.

Driving a car, riding a bicycle, and walking are each forms of transportation. But for a variety of reasons, it's culturally normal to be hostile towards people who aren't driving a car.

Spend some time walking or biking a city, and you'll become a much better driver.
