Still Not Amused

Back to the central topic here . People in general are stupid when it comes to innovation . Ninth Street has been turned into a veritable speedway by arrogant drivers . I used too ride my bike over there a few years ago and noticed the traffic along that stretch had become precariously dangerous . What needs to happen is the DOT has to change the light sequence between Third, & Seventh Avenues . That's where the bulk of the traffic comes from . As far as the bike lanes, That's pointless drivers will find a way to navigate their way around that . As far as widening the roadway, Pointless, That will just contribute to the double parking in the area . Start enforcing the traffic laws currently in place .

I'm serious about traffic- when people ask me why I like NYC so much, one of the first things I say is that you can walk around in so many neighborhood or travel to them via mass transit. I like the city being accessible by means other than cars also because I haven't driven more than 10 miles in 6 years.

meant to say traffic, although I would not like to preclude a taffic obsession, but the topic at hand is traffic

Jen you seem to be on a crusade. Taffic is your obsession
