Yeah what could possibly go wrong if we just let every Tom, Dick and Harry with no knowledge or experience in any of this, to just put up traffic signs anywhere they want?
Surely that goes both ways right? There's a stop sign by my house that I don't like, so I'm going to just remove it. Fuck the state, right?
I want to get together with my neighbor across the street and put a toll booth in front of my house. I live at the entrance to a cul-de-sac.
There’s a difference between lone individuals tearing out stop signs and a neighborhood collectively deciding to install one near a park.
Yeah, it's called a city council
Real "If we let gay people get married, soon people will be marrying their hamsters" energy
It's really not that at all, but go off
It really is. Slippery slope fallacy. Letting one neighborhood collectively decide to make an intersection by a park safer for children to cross is not the same as letting all people make their own decisions regarding signs and intersections. We are capable of handling individual situations as context-sensitive instead of assuming universal application is the only option.
It's not slippery slope, it's literally the same law. You can't just add or remove signs on a whim.
Wasn't on a whim. And you totally can. Whether or not it's a good idea or without consequence is a different story. However, it's not a stretch to suggest that most people who deal with road infrastructure have dealt with unsafe conditions that could be avoided with restructure. If conditions were unsafe, nothing was being done about it, and the community did something about it to make it safer, power to the people. No one is suggesting a precedent should be set by this, but I would suggest that if we don't want a repeating pattern, there ought to be a better, more expedient process in place than breaking the law to make this action unnecessary.
