说明
Unless you step out into the crosswalk, and risk getting run over, the vast majority of drivers don't yield to the pedestrians trying to cross the street at this intersection. I've seen it happen in front of the police who've done nothing about it. Once, in front of the police, I had to step out in the street and put up my hands to help a woman with her young child cross the street while at least two drivers laid on their horns.
Can we please get an officer who will do their job and actually stop drivers and give them tickets for this behavior? It is getting dangerous and I really don't want to see anybody get hit.

great idea, Lisa
I think the fine idea is a good one. Is that somethng that needs to come from the B of A? How does the city go about instituting a fine? I also wonder if we should ask Lt Howell to send the motorcycle cops over to East Rock and start handing out tickets for this.

this is a video of a pedestrian decoy operation in new jersey: https://vimeo.com/17448828#at=0
an undercover cop ”..walked back-and-forth for four hours, and 70% of drivers did not stop.”

While I agree there is a blatant disregard for traffic laws by drivers in New Haven - I believe it holds true for most travelers - regardless of their choice of transport. Many times I've come across pedestrians crossing in the middle of a block, jumping out in front of cars, bicyclists riding all over the place disobeying traffic signals, etc... If we're going to ticket drivers in sting operations, let's open this can up to ticket all people who break the law. A law is a law - and shouldn't discriminate against one type of citizen or another.
