Maybe I'm reading that wrong, but it seems like a "its someone elses problem" handwave. The road is for citizens, not just cars, bicyclers use it, pedestrians have to cross it, kids run out into it, we all pay for it to some degree, and we know there are a lot of drivers who shouldn't be driving. Just cuz a bell went off at the crosswalk does not make it safe, you would have to be stupid to put your life solely in the crosswalk signals hands.

If you drive a car, you are part of the problem, don't be blind to it (even if you are a fan of irony).
