圣卡特哈林居民对新的学校十字路口标志的安全提出疑问,因为潜在的司机分散注意力和碰撞风险。 Residents in St. Catharines question safety of new school crosswalk signs due to potential driver distraction and collision risks.

圣卡特哈林斯居民质疑直接放在学校十字路口的新垂直标志的安全性,认为尽管交通放慢,这些标志可能会分散司机的注意力并增加风险。 Residents in St. Catharines are questioning the safety of new vertical signs placed directly in school crosswalks, arguing they may distract drivers and increase risks despite slowing traffic. 标志的间隔狭窄,只是汽车宽度相隔,可能导致碰撞,转移人们对儿童和其他危险的关注。 The narrow spacing of the signs, just a car’s width apart, could lead to collisions and shift attention away from children and other hazards. 批评者要求有证据表明这种方法改善了安全。 Critics call for evidence that this method improves safety. 另外,有人对尼亚加拉地方政府的效率表示关切,其中一封信称汉密尔顿的合并证明合并市政可以降低成本,将政治选择(而不是合并)归咎于过去的税收增加。 Separately, concerns are raised about Niagara’s local government efficiency, with one letter citing Hamilton’s amalgamation as proof that merging municipalities can reduce costs, blaming political choices—not the merger—for past tax increases.
