If someone is too dumb to know what a streetcar ROW is and pay attention to the road, then they deserve to get killed. The less idiots in the world, the better... less risk of pedestrians like me getting run over while they are talking on a cell phone intoxicated.
Also a victory for the environment: less greenhouse gases being spewed into the atmosphere.
That may have been tongue and cheek, but I disagree with the underlying sentiment that nothing needs to be done. It was mentioned that whenever there's construction involving lane closures, the situation becomes even more confusing. With additional traffic and the need to pay attention to construction barriers and possibly pedestrians, a driver might notice the sign too late. It's hardly reasonable that they should pay with their lives. For people coming in from outside the city, which is actually very common in a city of this size, there's the additional burden of a lack of familiarity.
