Penn is already way too dangerous and does not need to be sped up

Timing the lights doesn’t encourage speeding. Quite the opposite, in fact. If you drive faster than the speed limit, you’ll get ahead of the light timing and end up having to wait at a red light that you would have otherwise missed. Poorly timed lights frustrate drivers and incentivize speeding to make the light, as well as speeding through “pink” lights or just plain running lights.

If by that you mean highway speeds and few traffic lights, no. It has narrow lanes, frequent intersections, pedestrians crossing, parked cars, and all the other things that come with an urban area, so it should be treated as such.

You obviously don't live in the City or care about it's residents. Slow down.
