Some streets in Sandy Springs, GA has a tree planted into the street, forcing drivers to wait for each other.

Why? 🧐😳🤔

Well, if I lived there I probably wouldn’t mind it….I’m sure it slows folks down tremendously. Keeps them from flying up and down the road in a residential area. Probably saved a few kids…ya never know !
I thought that too. Because it indeed slow you down, can't pass two cars together.
 
It’s called “road dieting” they do this instead of speed bumps and is meant to slow people down, I don’t like this method it’s in my opinion not as safe especially in a curve. You could call the cities engineering department and tell them your sight distance is obscured by these and they pose a hazard and that should spook them lol
 
Looks to be a residential street. I’m ok with this as it would deter dumbasses speeding through. However it’s still idiotic and all up in those power lines. I bet they look great when the power company has them trimmed down to sticks..
