Road design, safety and Vision Zero

There's a big thread about Ira Needles Rd. on reddit.

It's reminding me why I left the city. It's shocking how little people think about pedestrians...even ones who honestly believe they are trying to make things better for pedestrians.

And that's before you even reckon with the ones who actively state they don't bother looking for pedestrians at roundabouts and peds shouldn't try to cross the at the roundabout when they're coming because they'll get hit.

There have been zero fatal car crashes in our city. It's so frustrating...death is a policy choice, why do we choose death.
