The article also claims 55 accidents in the last 5 years caused 23
fatalities.

I wonder how many AUTO fatalities have occurred in the last 5 years.
Sounds like it's time to ban cars--heck, the streets are within a few
feet of houses.

I also laugh a bit at the "noise" issue. People complain about
airplane noise that I can't hear inside my house (however flimsily
built these stucco-over-styrofoam pieces of crap are). But they don't
do anything about the boom-box cars that generate chest-pounding
vibrations inside my house.

Misplaced logic abounds....
