Reusable grocery bag PSA


BEEEEEEEEP. Remember your reusable bag before you leave to the grocery store.

Incentive for stopping before the white line

Maybe everyone knows that behind the solid white line at the intersection there are giant sensors that tell the stop light there is a car waiting at the intersection. Mostly everyone who is aware of these pads aims to stop directly on one so that they do not have to wait longer at the light. There are probably quite a few people who are totally unaware of this, too. I have an idea to get people to stop before the white lines. Instead of hiding the sensor pads, outline them in white and paint three dots in the middle of them indicating the function of changing the stop light. And move them back from the white lines. People will learn that to make the light change they have to stop on the pad. Then we will not have cars rolling into people in the crosswalks and things will be safer for kittens.
