I am one of those new riders over the last year or so. The streetcar is a wonderful addition to our city and regardless of what the few outspoken critics have to say, many of us that live in the central city love it (as the increasing ridership numbers attests to) and want to see it continue to expand. But please, in the future try to find dedicated right of ways whenever possible. It's truly unfair that the selfish multitudes who insist on driving through the city have the capacity to slow down potentially effective transit means such as the streetcar. If you want it to be truly successful, let us streetcar passengers smile smugly while staring out the window at all of the frustrated drivers in stop-and-go traffic that we're blowing by.
