“Boulder police are investigating the traffic signs as criminal tampering.”

“I appreciate the fact that it’s drawing attention to the fact that we’d like people to slow down and not be on their phones, but there’s probably, again, a few more appropriate ways about getting that message out.”

I’d love if they implemented whatever appropriate ways they have… then again they said appropriate, not effective.

      Ugh we could probably talk all day about all the things the government intervened on for perceived dangers, and just ban something random to make it look like they addressed the thing.

      If I go up to a politician and say “I need your help to ban a product that has killed 20,000 people this year! Will you take my cause?”

      They’d act super enthusiastic until I say it’s private pick up trucks.
