Huh, that's close to one of Melbourne's older tram stop designs (slowly being phased out and replaced with accessible platform stops).

We just got one of these installed and it’s amazing. This was one of the most dangerous sections of road, with a hockey rink on one side and parking on the other so frequent pedestrian crossings. However people impatient with waiting would blast though on the wrong side of the street to get into the turn lane, endangering pretty much everyone. That can’t happen anymore. Too early to see stats though
Uhh. Wouldn’t the terrorist just swerve around it and hit them anyways…?
This is clearly for accidents dude, the hell kinda stretching you doing here?
I think cars are pretty terrifying most of the time. And that's the point. We're supposed to be terrified to use the roads, because we might be run over. That's terrorism. They even told us it's our own fault when we die, because using the roads is "jaywalking".
