Huh, I wish my town would do those corner protectors. There’s one corner especially, a block from my house, and on a major walking route to our neighborhood elementary school. After it snows, I frequently see tire tracks across the sidewalk from people who cut the corner badly. One of these days, they’re going to run over a kid on the sidewalk on their way to school.

There’s a stoplight across the street from me with a “no right turn on red” sign, because traffic turning into that road from the left backs up so much it needs its own green arrow.
I see people casually roll through that right turn about 20 times a day, and the local FD shows up about twice a week for a crash. Not many are fatal but occasionally a cyclist or pedestrian does get hit, because Becky in her Audi is MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU
