What Moves You?
Proof of Concept
I ran into a problem in the final stretch of reporting the story of why folks are waiting for sidewalks on one Macon, GA road.
How do I prove there is a problem?
There are no recorded pedestrian accidents on Log Cabin Drive. Macon-Bibb County in general leads the state in pedestrian fatalities, but, in my radio piece, I was left essentially telling the listener to take the word of the resident I talked to as the truth. Andrew Wooten says flatly he will not walk here.
Here on the internet, things are a bit easier. I made one last trip out to Log Cabin to get a closing image for the full story. While out, I saw this: a man sprinting across the bridge to beat the cars soon to be coming towards him from up the hill.
So while there aren’t numbers I can appeal to to make the case for safety enhancements on Log Cabin Drive, I think this image at least picks up the slack.
