Cities should install pylons in the bike lane that detect oncoming bikes and automatically start the crosswalk signal. Bikes can choose to go through the pylons or not depending on their route of travel.
States should create a lottery, where homeowners can pay $1 more on their state taxes to be put into a pool of money. The winner gets a home renovation that upgrades to code (including amnesty for any work done without a permit) and energy efficiency. New windows, energy efficient furnace, etc. The program would strengthen the state's housing stock, make living spaces safer, and reduce wasted energy.
