So many people want to point fingers at individuals-in-transit when the problem is design. Engineers, planners, council members—they've all promised to fix the safety issues but the promises so far have been false.

Poor line-of-sight, unprotected bike lanes, stroads, traffic circles with stoplights, business corridors, collapsing sidewalks, rundown pedestrian crossing signs—all a sign of complete traffic planning failure. At the end of the day cars are put first and driver's and pedestrians die for the promise of convenience—we all lose.
