Redphased traffic lights? Speed cameras? Do you want traffic caos? Lights allow safe passage at junctions, cameras catch those breaking the law.
Traffic light phasing should reflect the flows and give priority to the main roads. I am not sayign abolish taffic lights, and do want safe corssing for us pedestrians when the light is red for the traffic on the road we wish to cross. What is crazy in London is the all red taffic light phases, where all roads have red lights. very rarely do you see a pedestrian needing the facility to cross in both directions at the same time. You shouod recognise that speed is not a major cause of accidents, and understand how speed cameras themselves can worsen driver behaviour.
