Earth to Gahan: "Safe Streets Are for Everyone," says AARP.

Safe Streets Are for Everyone

... Crossing the street shouldn’t have to mean crossing your fingers and hoping for the best. While unsafe streets disproportionately affect older people, safe streets are for everyone. It is critically important to adopt policies that ensure our streets are designed for all who use them — pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and public transportation users of all ages. All of us need safe and efficient streets. That won’t happen without change, and Congress will soon have legislation before it to make much-needed improvements to our streets and crosswalks.
