😒 "Boulder Police Department is investigating 14 illegally placed signs with explicit traffic safety messages like “DON’T KILL ANY KIDS TODAY” and “SLOW THE F— DOWN.”

Imagine road authorities doing actual #VisionZero work, putting #StuffInTheStreet with the same urgency they show in response to DIY efforts.

Below it, a sign of the same size and font: "Don't kill any kids today".

caption: "Boulder city workers removed this unauthorized traffic sign earlier this week."

Lightly skimming Boulder's 2023 "#VisionZero Action Plan", I'm somewhat surprised that they would adopt something so toothless in 2023. This was like cities in 2015 would adopt a plan that said they really want to quit killing people with cars, and plan to achieve it with five things that won't work and seven they won't actually do, besides zero change to the terrible streetscapes #trafficEngineers regularly design.
