Traffic-weary homeowners and Waze are at war
I'm a homeowner and an active Waze user. The street I live on is not "my" street. It's a public street that any licensed driver may use.I did have an issue with drivers coming around a blind curve too quickly to be safe, though, so I did what these homeowners ought to be doing and contacted my local government about getting my street assessed for a traffic calming project.The city created a three-way stop before the curve that has slowed traffic on the street and seems to have reduced non-local traffic.Sure, that project took time and may not have even happened in the first place if the city hadn't judged it worth doing, but that's the appropriate course in my opinion. Anything else just feels like NIMBY entitlement.
