Summaries of content, keywords and links generated by algorithms. Thank you smmry.com:

Summary 1: Where fast moving cars and pedestrians meet in cities, the cars overwhelm the pedestrians.

Summary 2: On an ordinary street, cars make pedestrians feel small and vulnerable because the sidewalks are too narrow and too low.

Summary 3: When the car is down low and the pedestrian world physically higher, pedestrians feel, symbolically, that they are more important than the cars and therefore feel secure.

Summary 4: For the pedestrian to feel certain that a car could not climb the curb, the curb height would have to be greater than the radius of a car tire.

Summary 5: Although tall people can see over cars, even for them, the cars fill the landscape since a standing person's normal line of sight is 10 degrees below the horizontal.

Summary 6: To put a car 12 feet away completely below a pedestrian's line of sight, it would have to be on a road some 18 to 30 inches below the pedestrian..
