Last week during a routine bicycle commute to the Timbuk2 I noticed something a little different at the most dangerous intersection in America- a traffic light with a dedicated bicycle light! The intersection of two of the main thoroughfares through the city is a notoriously dangerous place for peds and bikers alike to cross [...]
