    That sounds nice. I was standing at a crosswalk for almost 15 minutes today walking home with my son in his stroller as cars were just flying by not taking a second glance. Last year 4 people died in seperate cases in that crosswalk. It’s nuts.

      It is nice. It’s been a welcome change from my hometown. They also have neon flags on sticks at most crosswalks. You grab one from the bucket, wave it around while crossing, and drop it in the bucket on the other side when you’re finished. I always grab a few if I notice the other side of the street doesn’t have any. Those flags would have all been stolen on day one in my hometown.
