Los Angeles herald., 1906-10-01
CROWDED STREET TRAFFIC

Los Angeles should take active steps
to regulate and order the traffic in its
principal downtown streets. Already
they are so thronged with automobiles,
horses and tramcars that progress
through Main, Spring or Broadway is
slow and uncertain, and perilous to a
marked degree.
The Herald has .lled attention to
this trouble before. 1t is moved to do
SO again because the thrush of tourists
this season will be the greatest ever
known here, and conditions are so bad
now that regulation should begin at
once, ere the greater crowds make
the streets impossible.
Several rigid rules should be laid
down for the traffic in the heart of the
enforced. The order to keep to the
right" is now violated with impunity,
and it should have first attention.
Vehicles of every sort, but especially
automobiles. now take either side of
the street that they prefer, instead Of
staying to the right as they are headed.
They criss-cr and interlace; they
stand an interminable while without
attendance; they cut cornell at cross
streets, and the confusion resultant is
fearful. A simple enforcing of the law
as it now stands by the policemen al
ready detailed at crossings would soon
right these evils and save much
trouble. Standing at the curbs on busy
streets, such as Spring, should be for
hidden altogether.
Then, too, the tides of s.affic from
cross streets into and across the main
thoroughfares should be so handled as
avoid the mixups noticeable at every
corner now. These same policemen
could do this with wave of the
hand. Instead, they stand like so
many wooden Indians in the ruck
or themselves. dodge tie reckless drivers
they should be regulating. These
drivers of horses or automobiles pay no
attention to anything save to get
through a mixup with no loss of time
to themselves or damage to their
vehicles; consideration for the public
at large is beyond their comprehension
This trafic regulation could be ac-
compllshed without cent of cost to
the city. The policemen are already on
duty in whose hands it should lie. All
that is necessary to wake up these
officers from their somnolence. tell them
that they are charged with the respon-
sibllity OF doing this work and hold
them to blame for the incessant block
AIDES. Then watch the trafiic straishten
out, and the fool or reckless driver
learn that others besides he own the
thoroughfares.
