## Resource

Compton’s bold new rubber medians are turning chaotic street stunts into costly crashes — and it’s working. Since installing them at three intersections, including Alondra Boulevard, officials report a 45% drop in street takeovers citywide, with residents calling the simple barriers a “game-changer.” Designed to last a decade, these low-cost fixes are quietly reclaiming the streets one tire mark at a time.
