>>1534130This is only a problem in America. Maybe it's just because they keep calling a tram "streetcar". And maybe because American see the world from the steering wheel. This leads to the misconception it has to run in street traffic.
Trams work like a charm if you build a real network. Modern tram systems are now a mixture of lightrail-like operations in suburban and peripheral areas and a more metro-like mode of operation in city centres, with underground stations or elevated sections. There might be only a few legacy crossings and street running sections.
