Here in Chicago, I noticed when I went to other cities they had the timers. I thought that was a great idea. We slowly started seeing them in Chicago and noticed much less issues at intersections and I even felt more relaxed while driving because of it. Then after they started putting up red light cameras I started seeing black frames put around the walk/do not walk signs blocking the count down timers from being seen. Typical bullshit corruption to generate revenue.

I've been saying for years that we should raise the driving age to 21, and lower the drinking age to 14. That way you have a chance to learn to drink in a supervised setting with adults who (theoretically) know how to drink safely, and you have a chance to get all the stupid "hey guys, check this out!" stories out of your system before you're ever allowed near the wheel of a car.

I know it isn't like this in every state but in Illinois and Wisconsin you can legally drink under 21 when supervised by a parent or guardian (basically "family setting"). You just can't order it or buy it. The two states have different variations on the law pertaining to where you can do that. Last I checked in Wisconsin you can drink in a bar just not order the drinks and not sit AT the physical bar. You have to be at a table and the guardian must bring the drinks to you. In Illinois you can't do that, basically has to be at a home.

Does Slashdot really need to carry this story? It has nothing to do with science, tech, gaming, or anything relevant.

It has everything to do with homophobic, misogynistic, pedophilic, and racist organization which puts on airs of setting out to do good but in reality protects child diddlers and extorting money from gullible followers while ignoring the bible which it purports to follow, nothing to do with science or tech. Why again is this on slashdot?
