Dear David, At least I don't live on the street you describe and I have
not driven to Madison in a decade. But if I did and had to commute with
such jack rabbit pedestrian and bike controlled lights, I would simply
drive at a speed for convenient stopping, not putting any extra strain
to my car or brakes. When I drive a forty mile per hour road with
uncontrolled lights, I drive at fifteen or twenty and don't mind the
obscene gestures or squealing tires as cars race around me. If those
are the new rules of the game--uncontrolled stoplights--so-be-it, and if
I am then a menace--so be it. When I lived in DC there was a four lane
urban steep downgrade with a light-controlled cross street at the
bottom. I descended that hill in rush hour in a lower gear rather than
depend on breaks after otherwise going down pell-mell. You can imagine
the obscene gestures sent my way. Maybe your Scott Walker is as
sensible a driver as I?

The new hawk signal is now operational at the corner of E. Mifflin and
Blair Streets. It feels great to push the button and get an immediate
response. I'm going to call it the Scott Walker memorial signal cause
he is going to blow a blood vessel the first time he is stopped on his
way home.
