One reader shares a great experience about getting something changed in their community.
1. According to the California driver’s manual, cars must have a front license plate. Occasionally I keep count and about 10% of cars do not have a front plate. It goes up to about 15% in Los Altos. It’s more than 60% for Teslas.
3. Some intersections have pedestrian crossing signals with three red lights that cycle when a pedestrian pushes a button to cross. When no pedestrian is crossing, all three lights are out, making it indistinguishable from an inoperative signal. But the California driver’s manual says that if a traffic signal is not operating, it should be interpreted as requiring a full stop.The stats you provide about no front plates are higher than I expected.
I asked for a 10-minute appointment with Mountain View Transportation’s Lorenzo Lopez to describe the problem and my solution, preparing to be ignored. To avoid subsequent frustration, my Plan B was to go to the City Attorney’s office, putting the city on notice about the danger there.
