. >> john scott here, i would have to say that the disabled community prefers the bulbs out and the parked cars and overgrown plant material obscures that person from the driver. and secondly, the bulb out serves a purpose to shorten the distance across the street. and getting down a curb ramp, a person has to pause and be careful and back up to the gutter, and there is a time delay and a distraction for the wheelchair person or visual impairment. and there is that delay before the intersection. and those conditions are not factored into timing of pedestrian crossing signals. and bulbs out have a great benefit for people with disabilities and that's one of those principles in universal design where it benefits safety and functionality. >> last question. >> quickly, if i can add to that caltran's bulb out. and we heard about concerns for high hits when pedestrians are standing on bulb's outs and large vehicles clipping pedestrians on the upper half of their bodies when they stand there and that high hit issue is another. >> and before that, david. >> i didn't see ellen's slide of the widen
