Drivers are not bothered by roadside memorials to car crash victims or ghost bikes. They think it will never happen to them. What if we placed a ghost car at every fatal car accident location? At a minimum they would be inconvenienced by all of the white cars parked everywhere.

On that note, I'd invite @JohnTory and @fordnation to come for a walk sometime during rush hour. Maybe @marksaunderstps could come along, too. I'll bring the stroller.

To the folks tweeting at me about this... The environment debate is not an either or. We can stop dumping raw sewage in our waterways AND take steps to reduce greenhouse gases emissions that warm our planet. #weonlyhaveone
