But I still see people violating it. There's an intersection near my apartment where people park right at the corner. Not only does it make it more unsafe for pedestrians, but even for drivers, particularly when it's a tall vehicle parked right on the corner blocking the view---and it makes it difficult for other drivers making a right turn without having to swing out far from the corner, having to go into oncoming traffic.

I am grateful that LA red-curbed the affected areas in my neighborhood. I have read of other cities that didn't, and yet still ticketed cars. I'm also glad to have the sightlines, considering how much fast-moving traffic I've got on my boulevard.
