On a summer's afternoon in Nashville, during the vibrant bustle of CMA Fest, a fatal road incident laid bare a disturbing infrastructure flaw. Country singer Conner Smith, 24, allegedly struck and killed 77-year-old Dorothy Dobbins while she was crossing a marked pedestrian crosswalk in the Germantown neighbourhood. What followed was not just mourning, but growing outrage over the hidden dangers of Nashville's pedestrian infrastructure.
