> Was it the military? Yes. The system seemed to work pretty well from my experience. Safety, in general, is everyones responsibility -- from the individual to the systems at play. If you've ever been to a civilian gun range and heard, "everyone is a safety officer", that's where that comes from. > It really isn't if you've spent most of your life as a pedestrian, walking or biking. If I'm an idiot, I'm likely to die, if the car driver is an idiot, I'm likely to die. Who do you think is more likely to be the idiot in that situation? I used to ride a motorcycle, can I use this logic for accidents as well? Anything bigger than I am is likely to kill me. The logic seems heavily flawed, and the binary representation of fault or no fault doesn't match with the reality that it could very well be that the city is not adequately equipping the pedestrians and drivers with viable signals to communicate with. It's also worth noting I live in the Bay area and bike across a good portion of it, including highways, and I do not share your view.
