“You’ve got all the kids.”

Via the Tribeca Tribune:

“West Thames is a very dangerous road at 8 in the morning and between 2 and 4 p.m. because you’ve got all the kids,” CB1 Battery Park City Committee member Tammy Meltzer said. “My concern is that there are cars that U-turn there. It’s a very wide location and there are no crosswalks.”

Is there a quote that better represents the way people talk about dangerous driving as if it’s some weather-like uncontrollable force?  West Thames is probably a very dangerous road because you’ve got all the cars, not because you’ve got all the kids.  And it definitely won’t become more dangerous when you have all the bike share.
