And that's the issue -- people who support this doesn't realize just how sweepingly broad these changes are going to be. Add to that is they don't know, acknowledge, or care about the fact that pedestrian collisions in this city overwhelmingly occur on streets and in areas that won't be affected by this change at all.

It's Helen Lovejoy in legislative form -- won't someone think of the children!
