Citizen complaint of the day: In Fort Point, the Massholes are getting too hardcore

Flattened sign

A terrified citizen reports four-wheeled hooligans have taken to flattening the signs that tell them to stop for pedestrians in crosswalks on A Street:

The pedestrian crossing sign has been destroyed again. The speed people drive down this road is crazy, when do we get a 4 way stop?

The secret to making those crosswalk signs useful is to make them actual bollards. The first masshole to ram one gets their car totalled.

Narrow the road.

But, they won't do anything but put up those useless pedestrian signs, if even that. Couldn't risk a driver getting hurt. Nevermind someone on foot getting flattened like that sign, doesn't matter to BTD.

Got to keep the pressure up. Institutions like the BTD don't change overnight.

crosswalk sign in front of the Bates School on Beech St. in Roslindale. Scary!

4-way stops are not effective as a speed-control measure, and unwarranted stop signs make things more dangerous.
