I never understand how in the morning everyone drives slow and pisses you off and people swerve and vere in and out of traffic to get to the next light.

Then in the afternoon, same thing happens but you are going twice the speed.

seems safer but longer to me

If you noticed they also beep. This is for the blind.

It just kills me that the old pedestrian crossing buttons weren't accessible enough and the "walk" signs weren't aligned well enough. They just had to spend that money to move them so they couldn't be missed. Has anyone ever even seen a wheel chair cross 235 in that area?

No but most people wind up in a wheelchair from crossing 235...
