It's not an "accident"...it's a "crash". Let's use the right terminology here. "Accidents" are when you — instead of fart in your pants. A crash is a horrific incident..and that happened last night.
No need to close streets to cars; I think they should do what happens in New York; extend barricades out a couple of lanes to give pedestrians greater room space. The sidewalks are too narrow...and interim word is that the LADOT is looking to make Main street WIDER for cars between 1st and 5th street (which is terrifying).
By continue prioritizing cars..this is what happens...........
There's thousands of car crashes a day..but yet we only talk about the 1 train crash in 2008 (Metrolink getting tons of anti-press today). Nobody thinks about the dozens killed per day by cars....
