Part of the problem is street design in the first place. Long, wide, straight roads encourage reckless driving and high speeds. Lois Drive, in Spenard, is a classic example. There are no safe pedestrian facilities along much of that street, and commuters use it to avoid the traffic intersection at Minnesota and Spenard, yet one solution offered is to increase the traffic flow on Minnesota. This is really a 'swallow the spider to catch the fly' sort of problem. Policy-makers should look at community-wide impacts of land use planning and transportation planning together rather than independently.
