Shopper Safety

Last time I wrote about my belief in installing traffic lights at the intersection of major aisles within stores of all sorts. The cynical of you caught on that I did not talk about the additional revenue a store might gain by ticketing violators - but I have to say that to do that would be wrong. So no, I do not advocate that. This is simple a safety issue for me.

Along the same lines, I am also recommending that silent policeman be installed in those very same aisles. For those of you who do not know, a silent policeman is another name for a speed bump. Trolley pushers and cart wielders would just have to slow down.

As our economy recovers and consumer spending increases, these are ideas we should implement for all of our safety. If we are unwilling to regulate guns and those who shoot and kill shoppers and others with them, perhaps we can at least protect ourselves with less intrusive government policies such as these being implemented.
