A pity and sympathy signal? That is what the audible traffic or pedestrian
signal is. You have no data which supports the danger to blind pedestrians. In
fact, the data will lean the other way. Blind pedestrians can be and have
demonstrated great independence and safety. What is the record in Des Moines,
IA, for example? Or in my town of Springfield, MO or St. Louis MO? [ ... ]
Please get objective data before foisting off on us, the taxpayer, the totally
impractical policy of the APS.
I am forwarding this to you by permission because I don't even have a computer.
Sincerely,
