Hoboken, New Jersey, recently marked seven consecutive years without a traffic death. Officials there credit their decision to take away some street parking, a change that increases visibility for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.

I can absolutely see how removing street parking increases visibility and decreases accidents. Too many times I have to pull out into a road almost blind because my line of sight to traffic is blocked by an enormous SUV / pickup until I am partly in the intersection.
