FireRetardant,

Now consider the masive line ups of cars every morning and afternoon transporting kids to and from schools. Kids walking next to the idling cars, they are shorter and heads are closer to the running exhausts. Even if they are one of the rare kids that still walks to school, there is a good chance they have to cross/walk beside a car infested stroad. Just because we took the lead out doesn’t mean these funes are no longer harmful.

EinfachUnersetzlich,

I want to say none of that is common in England but perhaps it’s changed since I was at school.

lemmy,

Shockingly common in England currently. There’s a scheme to change roads near schools to pedestrian only during school hours but it’s getting loads of push back from the Range Rover brigade.
