Aren't you clever knowing all the hip kid memes? However, I'm not asserting I know more than you about traffic engineering. Just that traffic engineers do.

- IshKebab 4y agoYou're not asserting that traffic engineers know more about traffic engineering than me. You're asserting that I know so little about traffic engineering that I couldn't put a crossing in a sensible place (because there's some mysterious uber-knowledge required to do it that only professional traffic engineers possess).
- mhb 4y agoAs many others have commented, I'm asserting that people, in general, who follow the example of painting these bandit crosswalks don't appreciate the nuances of where it is dangerous to place them. If I have erred in crediting you with too little knowledge in this domain, you have my apology. But before you encourage others to pursue this activity, you probably want to make clear, to them, notwithstanding any appearance of a lack of humility, the distinction between your knowledge and possible shortfalls in theirs.
