Last fall I was walking home up Locke, between King and Main. Ahead of me, an elderly woman in a scooter crossed the street also heading north, and upon riding up the steep sloped ramp, her entire scooter tipped and threw her completely into the right lane of traffic. She was laying there helpless, thankfully no cars were flying by then, as they do with the extra lane the city wedged into this residential street years ago to encourage speeding. A few of us helped the woman up and pulled her scooter to a flat portion of sidewalk.

How insane is this? Had a car been coming by right then, the results would have been horrendous and fatal.
