They're now looking at a lot of options; more meaningful warning lights
at the intersections, crossing arms, etc. Currently they've implemented
the 10mph through intersections policy, and have posted traffic cops at
key intersections until they can get the whole situation sorted out.
Maybe they should paint the orange line buses bright orange instead of
ghost gray.
Maybe people should just learn what a red light at a crossing really means.
Darwin should take care of the rest.
Yes! One of my favorite pet peeves!
Always blame the implement, not the operator!
Smack someone with a baseball bat, and everybody blames that damned bat!
Ought to *outlaw* them ~ they're very dangerous!
Only cops should have bats!
Bottom line, pilot error. Human failure once again.
But, it seems that today avoiding blame is de rigueur!
Nobody's ever at fault! Odd, what?
