If only it were true. Most of the country is rushing ruinously toward actuation.
Only a few cities (notably New York, San Francisco, Chicago) believe in pedestrians.
Boulder, CO has taken pedestrian safety to absolutely ridiculous levels: http://www.bouldercolorado.gov/index.php?option=com_content&...
You can know if someone is crossing a street in Boulder from Denver :)
