These “mountable islands” might be good in theory but it looks like the city did absolutely nothing to make them easily visible. I’ve seen similar things around my own city and its almost as if the traffic engineers want to cause vehicle damage and dangerous maneuvers as you often can’t see these obstacles until you’re about to crash into them.
As the city redesigned 1200 West to better connect State Route 252 with communities in the southern end of Cache Valley, officials installed a protected bike lane, enhanced pedestrian crossings and curves in the road to slow traffic. They also put in raised concrete slabs at intersections to force drivers into slower, wider turns.
Not surprising, everyone says they want safer roads but won’t give up the F350 to haul their larded ass around or drive even slightly slower…
Instead of enforcing traffic laws, municipalities now want to turn the roads into obstacle courses so people can’t even drive at the designed speed.
Good
Honestly, every time I hear about Utah, it’s some dumbass bullshit.
This is the same state that banned masks during covid.
Citation? All I can find is that they ended mandates in April 2021, but nothing about a ban.
