My e-mail read on Talk of the Nation!


Today while mopping the kitchen floor in preparation for Thanksgiving, I was listening to NPR. They had a discussion entitled "Calming Traffic by Losing the Signs." On the heel of an incident yesterday in the Winco parking lot, it occured to me that this "experiment in civil engineering" already takes place in every parking lot in America. So I wrote in, and Neil Conen actually read my message!

Talk of the Nation, November 23, 2006 : Traffic engineer Ian Lockwood explains why some European cities have ditched their traffic signs and make the roads "shared space."
