San Francisco, CA
Opinion | Pedestrians, cyclists and drivers respond: San Francisco streets are dangerous
I don’t know in which part of the city the author of this piece lives, but it must be some Pollyanna area of which I am unaware.
I live in Ingleside, where, over the years, I’ve seen Ocean Avenue and the other streets turn into a speedway that requires me to wait to cross the street because, inevitably, someone is going to speed through a red light only to be stopped by the red light on the next block in a vain attempt to gain a few seconds’ time.
I would prefer that I not need to wait to step off the curb simply because speeding and running red lights haven’t yet registered enough deaths for my neighborhood to become a “high-risk” area.
This guy needs a reality check.
