Breakaway car infrastructure
In the middle of the sidewalk
🤦

How, exactly, does the #trafficEngineers' thought process work here? What kind of world would it be if #transportation infrastructure stopped cars *before* they got on the sidewalk? Are we more afraid about hurting drivers inside their armored and padded box than they are of killing someone with their car?

This is not a freeway. There should be no "clear zone". Any driver wrecking at freeway speeds here deserves to die in a fire.
looking left, a breakaway sign post with flashing lights, smack in the middle of a sidewalk while the street has way more clear width than necessary for 20mph speeds
looking right, the sign "push button to turn on warnings lights" is in the foreground and a broken-off warning lights pole laying on the sidewalk behind it.
