Talking Traffic on Streetsfilms

I stopped by the offices of Streetsfilms recently for a chat with Mark Gorton, founder of the Open Planning Project (among many other things). Have a look here if you’d like.

    Another good interview and much thanks to Streetfilms. The disconnect is getting worse and the logic used to supporting alternatives like VC gets weaker with these trends. If more distractions are used in a moving motorized vehicle perhaps each should trigger a lower “maximum allowable” speed. Our driving exams definitely need to be harder and greater funding for safety devices (via higher gas taxes) is necessary.
