Houston Chronicle: No excuse for driving into path of light-rail trains

Drivers who can't resist the urge to make an illegal left-hand turn across the light-rail tracks should avoid the stretches of Main and Fannin where the tracks are laid.

Well, the law's the law and you can't much argue with what the ChroniBile's saying here. But let's just think about that a minute. Getting the toy train is making our life less convenient. The 99% of us who will never ride the train on a regular basis have to reconfigure our lives to make METRO and the ChronicBile editorial board happy. Am I the crazy one here, or shouldn't maybe the local government exist to provide services to us?
