Response to previous complaints has been that there is a standard for how the gate arms have to be, and our gate arms meet the standard.
I agree that flashing lights, fluttering fringes, neon paint, etc, would be an appreciated improvement. But - our gate arms meet the standard.
Well, why can't we exceed the standard? Why can't we add more visibility than the minimum?

I have heard people complaining for years, I never really understood how people could miss them... until the morning I went to pick up a friend near the Sea-breeze rec center and even with the visor and tinted window.... I did not see a thing, gate, gate arm, etc. Previous to that, I would have thought the problem was a bit hyped. I found out when the summer sun is straight on early in the a.m., everything is blotted out. Some have mentioned any kind of "fluttering" like fringe would help but maybe nothing is made that would actually stick on for long ?
