Re: Law Suit for Human Scale Access.

Jason,

Are buses dangerous? No. Are cars dangerous? No. Are drivers 
dangerous? A big yes. It's how people use objects, offensively 
obviously are dangerous. Get the notion that objects are dangerous 
out of your minds. Objects are inert, actionless until a person 
activates it. A gun is only dangerous if a person uses it offensively 
and not defensively. A cell phone, as I noted early, is dangerous 
only if a persons misuses it while driving. By the way, it is same 
for a pedestrian or cyclist who misuses a cell phone!

Regarding the human rights thing: It might be a valid argument only 
if the pedestrians and persons with disabilities can't cross a street 
because of unsafe drivers who don't respect the bylaws and laws. This 
needs to be explored further.
