Car, ambulance crash in Back Bay

Beacon St needs to be reengineered. I think it should shed a lane as going three wide just incentivizes faster than the necessary speeds. I drove this from Charles St to Mass Ave every day home from school and I can't tell you how many times me or other cars on the road sped up to beat a yellow only to come to screeching halt at the next. Add in the double parking on both sides of the roads by delivery trucks, taxis, cars and you have an environment where people want to go fast (three lanes would imply its possible), want to beat lights, but have to cut back and forth to avoid obstacles in their way, with little time to account for pedestrians or bikes. This obviously applies more to the July deaths, but there's no need for Beacon to be configured as such, especially when Comm Ave is better tooled to handle the east-west traffic (even if marginally more inconvenient to reach).
