One simple fix Seattle could do downtown would be to make all the crosswalks all way, and increase the walk times. At the same time, make it illegal for cars to turn right on red and you’d dramatically increase pedestrian safety and increase car throughput.
However it won’t happen with our current city council.
- amyjess 8y agoAs a pedestrian, I would be happier if cars could only turn right on red. I have nearly been run over multiple times by some jackass who doesn't look where he's going making a right turn when I have a walk signal.
- influx 8y agoI should have been explicit, with all way walks it would also be illegal for pedestrians to cross on traffic green lights.
