I don't like this type of curb ramp design either. But why do we end up with ones that look like this? Some aspects of curb ramp design:
Yes, the city needs to actually repave streets. Yes, the city needs to repair sidewalks. Yes, the city needs to install curb ramps.
But the bigger problem is that when LA decides to do anything at all to "help" pedestrians, the result looks like this complete and utter bullshit

Election takeaway: Dems have an opening on immigration. The border’s calm, but Trump’s vulnerable on overreach in cities. Dems need a plan to keep the border calm, rein in ICE & CBP, & protect the undocumented. These are the positions voters actually support.
