The commission is set to discuss the issue in the coming weeks when the LAPD responds to a negative report titled "Safer Streets in Los Angeles" that recommends scrapping the program in favor of tweaking traffic engineering measures. For example, it proposes lengthening yellow signals and implementing an all-red-light phase to let cars clear the intersection.
