Thanks, the extra context is helpful, though if anything it contradicts the assertion that American traffic planners are personally incompetent and the cause of the unsafe conditions for pedestrians (given that they're set up to fail)

I see you share the author's naivety/lack of empathy. That's not at all what I'm suggesting, just that the author, to my interpretation, has an overly reductionist take that doesn't acknowledge nuance. By your logic

I agree that pedestrians shouldn't shoulder risk, within reason. But by my interpretation of the article the author derides city planners for perceived incompetence/prioritization of motorist safety, without considering any nuance

And that's fair, to an extent, but the author seems to have a vendetta or total lack of empathy towards motorists. You can't just ignore the consequences of vehicles hitting bollards, you have to weigh the likelihood of cars hitti

Those in the know are familiar with OCI, etc. but (without hard data to back me up) I think it's still fair to say that the majority of people (lay people, if you will) consider them the same thing by virtue of ignorance.

A hatchback civic, which even for the 2024 model ostensibly has a manual available. I got the 2019, and for being a relatively modest car, I've been pleasantly surprised by the performance and handling.

Right, I get that there's no record of the door plug being opened, which is ultimately on Boeing, but the repairs for the damaged rivets, which require opening the door plug, were performed by Spirit employees.
