If you drive anywhere in Seattle, you will find a scene similar to this at nearly every residential street intersection. Seattle's

Since their widespread use here, traffic accidents at blind intersections have been reduced by over 70%. Neighbors keep up the landscaping (or not. . .). See more pics at
