If I Were Governor

This is not an exhaustive list, but just a few things I thought of while driving, for what I would do if I were governor of my state.

  • Make all the crosswalk timings consistent. Some count to zero then the light changes to yellow. Some hit yellow at 2 or 3 and go to red on zero. Some hit zero and the light stays green for a few more seconds.
  • Get rid of changing the clocks twice a year. This has gotten some more traction lately, but so far it’s all smoke and no fire.
  • Set a maximum height above ground level for headlights. Too many jacked-up pickups with annoying/unsafe headlight placement.
  • While I’m on that thought, maybe require a CDL for vehicles whose hood exceeds a certain height. If you can’t see people standing in front of your vehicle, you get extra training and scrutiny.

It is He who reduces rulers to nothing, Who makes the judges of the earth meaningless.
