I am totally opposed to audible traffic signals for the blind. My wife who is blind was recently trained at our Assessment and Training Center at the Idaho Commission for the blind and Visually Impaired. She learned alternative techniques used by blind persons. To travel independently was one major area of training. She learned to cross streets by listening to the movement of the traffic at each intersection.

It is important that my tax dollars go for good training rather than being used to fund audible traffic signals and detectable warning devices.

Sincerely,

Scott Bradley
