When I’m not writing a post, I am often working to keep my neighborhood a great place to live. Good schools, safe streets, non-invasive businesses, and minimal traffic are all important.
The problem with traffic is that there really aren’t that many good options. Stop signs and speed bumps slow people down, but that also means increased noise from cars speeding up and slowing down. You really can’t win…. UNTIL NOW.
Enjoy the following clip about how to slow down neighborhood traffic and be sure to let me know when you implement this creative solution in your own city!

That is hysterical! I couldn’t understand a word he said, but after watching it, I can only assume he was ranting about the people who speed through his neighborhood — that and gleefully plotting his revenge. I’d love to hear the translation of the whole thing. What was it advertising?

Very funny! This is a commercial for what is Home Depot in Germany. The voice over at the end says that if you have an idea for a do-it-yourself project, go to that store for all the supplies. Plus, there is a contest.
Einen schoenen Tag Euch allen.
