they should erase all Stop lines, Pedestrian lines etc - and repainted them at 90 degrees from the current... 

 

all traffic will then be hesitant to rush over the lines, for fear of being run over by pedestrians! 

 

i.e it is the 'crossing over' the lines that gives the locals some sort of adrenalin rush - the opposite of White Line fever
