Traffic lights are for organizing cars, that's the whole point of the article. Pedestrians and bycyclists are just bystanders that suffers greatly from them.

- raverbashing 9y agoWaiting for the lights to turn green for your right of way (something that cars also have to do) is "suffering greatly" now?
- Joe-Z 9y agoAs opposed to being able to just freely walk around as you please? You could say that, why not. And if one insists on moving a 2 ton metal cage through a city going 30 mph or more, I think having to wait now and then is a reasonable trade-off. The natural habitat of the car is the highway and that's where it should stay.
- emj 9y agoI love cars, but they can not handle intersections at all. For me personally it's a great injustice that cars are so valued that I am supposed to breath one of the worst kinds of air pollutions every other morning for 180 seconds while waiting for red light at just one intersection.
