Ha! I just went to LA a couple months ago for an emergency and commented how easy it was to navigate without all the BS obstructions and distractions. Just simple, intelligent roads with predictable rules for all; everyone making do. Gosh it was like setting a game on easy mode where reason made sense again.
Then I got home to new "no right on red" signs, bike boxes nooooobody will frigging use in this town ' cuz they can't be bothered to stop, and an email from city planning telling me the dangerous changes they made are not their liability so it doesn't concern them. Don't bother down voting, I know where I posted this.
Welcome to maximum stress, chaos, and pitting your citizens against each other LA. Tips hat to you
You are what people pejoratively call "car brain".
Sorry to hear that less people dying is so inconvenient for you. Must be really hard.
Allowing a right turn on red is actually a danger in multiple ways.

Meh, I'm over that intersection anyways. I just take the residential street before it now. It's faster anyways, even if it is narrower.
