Combined PING! and DANG!
This sort of thing just makes it SO rewarding to turn over your hard-earned cash every April.

They were following the chicken.
Now if they had spent it on studying why chickens cross the road, it would be money well spent.

Because all the nuts all arguing over at the Fuddy plane crash thread.
Why did the Democrats cross the road?

As if they couldn’t have sent some undergrads out to a few street corners with a pad and pencil without wasting a dime of tax dollars.

money well spent. Hopefully it will help me break my habit of rolling when crossing a street.

Feds Spend $356,337 on ‘Simulation Facility’ to Study How People Cross the Roads in Atlanta during a Snowstorm
One of my traffic engineering classes required us to read a book about the politics of traffic engineering. The author was very clear in stating that the traffic engineer should avoid trying to interpret public behavior/perception in their designs because the variables are to vast to account for.
I’m sure people being watched at a safe simulation facility are going to act just the same as people trying to cross the street while avoiding getting run over by a bus or truck or muzzlem taxi in real traffic.
Bogus science.
