have the right to make that right turn on red. hold that thought, because i want to talk about one other thing, this last point about the expectation that if there are two teenagers standing on the corner, you ought to be slowing down or showing you are aware are them in some way. the highway department has the signs that show the family running across the highway to alert drivers on interstate 5, that might be refugees dashing into the roadway to find freedom. and the notion presumably is when you drive on interstate 5, you don't expect to see a family run across the roadway. whereas when you drive in san francisco, you ought to expect to see teenagers stoned on testosterone and as a as -- seniors and when i give safety tests, they are all on drugs and they are legal drugs, but be aware that it throws your perceptions and timing off. and drivers need to know that kids and seniors and drunks are all over the place in the city. and drive with that in mind. so the thing about changing the law on right turn on red or anything else, h

right turn on red. that was a big mistake and it encourages people to run red lights, and you can do that when you have given the priority to the motorists. and when i was staying there is a left turn trap lane and that sign of hayes has no pedestrian crossing and to go from "a" to "b" and in a nice pedestrian neighborhood, that doesn't make any sense. those are my four rules and i promised to show you the before and after. and this is 122 avenue in portland, and after we applied the measures, now you see the after. and there was a high demand for crossing at that location, and no signalized crosswalk for a mile on one side. and it's been a successful place and there haven't been any incidents here since we put it in. and one final design suggestion to show you, and i have to show this everywhere i go, and this was my daughter's idea at 8 years old and her idea, when the signal turns to walk, bars come down. and that would be the ultimate and predictable and safe, just the thought of how we might reorga

the american red cross has 12 volunteers out here. many more spontaneous volunteers are still out here this morning. these volunteers came down to help last night, are in no way affiliated with the red cross. they started arriving last night and immediately got to work. a lot of organizing has to be done in a situation, the food and clothes brought in by the community needed to be sorted. that's one of the reasons why at this hour the red cross is asking for monetary donations. log on and send money in care of the san bruno fire effort. women dropped off diapers and baby formula, one of the women heard the loud explosion last night and as she watched the continuous coverage of what was going on she came down to donate. we also spoke to a man who heard the explosion and th took some action. >> we are a tight community. everybody knows each other and everybody went to school together and played sports together. when you see your neighbor's homes on fire and you know them you can pick out our friend's houses it's sad but it makes you wan

we have done training around the city a partnership with the red cross. one challenge was people showing up. we did advertising and people didn't necessarily come to the presentations. because it requires more than putting up a sign and it requires more contact than our department has. people in the building have to encourage their neighbors to come to these trainings. back to disaster kits. we have a grant from the hospital council to purchase disaster buckets from the red cross. it's not many. our focus is on low income families. family and child care providers. we are looslooking at organizeds like day care centers and providing them with supplies. so they're available after a disaster. that's one way we are addressing that. >> did you have a follow up to that? >> you keep saying turn off the gas. i've tried to get a hold of pg and e. a lot of the meters have frozen nuts or whatever you want to it. i tried to get pg and e to look at the one in my house and says it's impossible to shut off. how do we get pg and e to address the fact the old meters in fr

we also have the red cross truck here.have information this morning that they helped out about 38 people at the two shelters they had set up last night. they say that a lot of people ended up going with family and friends. we're also, if we can pan over here, waiting for a press conference to start to get new information. we're believing this may be the lieutenant governor coming here. that could happen any minute. a lot of people coming by wanting answers. we spoke with one woman a couple minutes ago, she said she had a couple relatives up there and hasn't heard from them. she is trying to get information on them. also people coming here wanting to know, as sad as it sounds, wanting to know if their home is still standing. they are wanting answers and the red cross can't answer that. oes is here, firefightering trying to learn what is going on. state farm, the insurance company, will be out in this lot helping out the people they cover trying to get them back on their feet. certainly a lot of activity this morning. a lot

you can see behind me the red cross truck is here. they are certainly helping many of those people who had their homes either completely burned to the ground or had a lot of damage done to it. you can see some of the video there. dozens of homes that burned and more that are damaged. one person confirmed dead and dozens hurt. many people taking themselves to the hospital. some with severe burns, others with smoke inhalation, some in nearby hospital, others as far as san francisco. saint francis burn unit was treating some of the people last night. this is going to be a pretty difficult search operation, certainly not rescue but a search operation as cadaver dogs go through some of the rubble this morning. mainly, that's because many of the people if there are any left inside pretty much would have been incinerated. this fire was so hot, i was here last night that it just eliminated the houses almost instantly. you see skeletons, chimneys, ironically about the only things left standing sit on the ground n top of foundations. certainly

we are at the shopping center, we have a red cross here. and i want to show you right here, where they have been getting donations from people around the area, there's food. there are blankets. there are jackets, there's water. all things for people who are just kind of trying to get what they can to help. they've been seeing these picture and it's been touching them. a lot of them are trying to do whatever they can to help out in whatever small way. as you saw, as the two people we talked to got a couple of blankets; because it's chilly out here. we're not sure that the red cross is accepting any food. but blankets, and jackets. a lot of these people don't have anything right now, so they are really in need. we're going to try to stay on top of this, and we're going to try to get an interview with the vice mayor who has been getting briefings regularly from police. there are a lot of police out here on the scene from san mateo, san bruno and surrounding jurisdictions to see if they can keep order here. when we started off it was about 15,

and right turn on red, and we have looked at these numbers, and we feel that right on red is safer than right on green, and there are a lot of aggravated people and i hate it when people don't look. that's a violation of the law, and when people don't watch for the pedestrian, and when people say they want to inhibit the right turn on red and to enforce the law and that right goes to the pedestrian. and we implement a lot of no turn on red's and maybe 15% and we are happy to look at those more on a case by case basis. >> michael. >> >> hard to cover jack, and he covered a lot of issues. and like i said, when i started this morning, that san francisco is a leader in a lot of ways. and the issues you deal with here, they are so much more urban, and focusing on probably repeat some things that jack said, and focusing on issue that is relate to issues and turning and the dual turn lanes and the lead for pedestrian head start. those are critical and the speed issues there are several tools and the signal progression speed and i thought it was 13 miles per hours, now it's 11, and that's somet

but first it is red skins time. tomorrow afternoon the red skins must think of the texans as a dual threat. houston has been known as a passing game for years. but last year they showed they have a running game that can't be ignored. they know the offense sieve thanks to the coordinator kyle's insider information. he has been with them for two seasons. but on the flip-side they know kyle's style really well. is there any advantage? >> it is and it ain't. because, you know, we have been this offense but at the same time their defense has been going against their offense for years, too. so, you know, i guess whoever is going to make that play is going to be the one who wins the game. >> we are mirror images of each other offense. so definitely, you know, they are not going to throw anything at us that we haven't seen and probably not going to throw anything at them that they haven't seen so it will be the team that plays the well. >> williams has another tough test as he goes another top- notch defense in mario willia
