The most successful, vibrant cities in the world today look a whole lot like they did a hundred years ago. We know what works. We just need to get to work.

E-cars were 9% of car sales in 2022, and the e-car fleet was under 17 million worldwide. E-bike sales were at 275 million. Politicians and policy-makers, stop ignoring, or underestimating, e-bikes. Via Treehugger.com #EBikeEffect treehugger.com/stop-ignoring-…

This is such a deeply unserious question! Anyway, we're going back to getting Measure HLA passed so that car crashes stop being the #1 killer of children in our city. x.com/SaulGonzalezCA…

The truth. If twenty Boeing 737’s were to crash in the next 24 hours, with no survivors, the world of aviation would be in absolute crisis. Yet, that’s how many people we lose to cars, every day. And we shrug our shoulders, when we should be saying stop, how can we save them?

The odds of your child getting kidnapped are about 1 in a million. The odds of a person born in 2021 dying in a traffic crash are about 1 in 93. American parents act like these stats are reversed. They're paranoid about the rare kidnapping but naive about the common drive.

I’m a driver. I drive in bus only lanes every chance I get, I stop in virtually every bus zone I see, and I am absolutely ecstatic whenever I hear a car gets ticketed for it. Because I drive the bus. Wish you had interviewed a transit operator, we could explain why this is just.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via Streetsblog USA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/29/pro…

I tried to be a billionaire by tomorrow but I took a nap and fell short. Pretty akin to the last 10 years in LA Vision Zero strategy.

This station sees 139 daily rides, which translates to 77 parked cars. Seeing this station takes the space of 4 cars, I think this is highly efficient. Thank you for pointing it out!
