A few years ago they'd painted a super thick stripe marking a bike lane on the Embarcadero, which someone must have figured out was the most unsafe thing for bikes ever because of the slippery when wet factor--they ground that paint right back off within a couple of months.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881625.post-1168991723588514072007-01-16T15:55:00.000-08:002007-01-16T15:55:00.000-08:006.5 years of designing traffic signals and the mos...6.5 years of designing traffic signals and the most profound thing I have ever heard a City Engineer say was that people used far more caution when left to their own devices.<BR/><BR/>In Santa Barbara they started removing the crosswalk stripes, and the result was fewer pedestrian/auto accidents.<BR/><BR/>The more we try to control everything, the more control we loose.
