Another possibility, do high medians affect other people's driving? For example, are some timid drivers afraid and might be tempted to swerve into the next lane?

Well why are they higher in other areas? I know you're just throwing it out there but it still doesn't make sense.

I just think the "people have died- do something now" line of thinking may not always be the best. We see that after C-train faitalities; people come up with all kinds of ideas on how to make things safer. At some point personal safety needs to become a personal responsibility.

That line of thinking is the best line of thinking. Better than the "drivers are stupid, bad truck drivers" line of thinking.
Personal safety is a personal responsibility which is why I want the median up. The people who were killed were not in control of their personal safety in any way, shape, or form.
