That's a good point.
I'm not sure where I stand on this issue.
On one hand, I think to myself that all of the major roads and highways have striping.
But then I think that none of the 25-30 mph road are. Since multi modal paths have a speed limit of 19.9 mph is striping necessary? Is it overkill? Have we had a lot of head on collisions?
But I do think that the paths were made to narrow so maybe striping and reflectors are a good idea. But then I have no idea what the cost would be.
Evidently some people here consider that this is a no brainer and it's obvious that striping is necessary. Personally, I've never had any problem seeing the edges of the road at night or avoiding running head on into a golf cart moving in the opposite direction. So I question the necessity although I do understand the concern.
