Level of Service is one of the many tools that professionals destroy life and property. It's an engineering tool that measures car delay at intersections. If you wait a few seconds at a red light, that's considered fine. If you have to wait a minute, then that means the taxpayers need to fork over millions to build additional lanes.

Level of Service is a ridiculous way to measure the success of a street. It does not consider the safety and comfort of anyone outside of an automobile.

If a street is deadly to walk across but has very little congestion? That's a successful street!

You need to fight against Level of Service. It's destroying communities.
