So much for road safety, eh? Cyclist deaths are up 71% this year, and TAC, government and VIC police don't care.

There’s basically a media blackout on this story. Genocide isn’t newsworthy?

The year is 2058. The Melbourne bike lanes have been ripped up and reinstalled for the 62nd time.

The average daily temperature is 45° and trees no longer exist but the council is still unsure on the viability of sustainable transport

Hahahaaha what a shitshow

So YouTube will be banned for under 16s but Snapchat allowed because it is a messaging service

😂😂😂😂

If countries like Ireland have a "Safe Routes to School" programme, why doesn't Melbourne? Why doesn’t the state government value the lives of the most vulnerable road users—pedestrians and cyclists?

Oh well… maybe next week @ABCmediawatch @TheRealPBarry ?

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

This is a massive media scandal.

@SkyNews posted a video accurately describing what happened in Amsterdam.

It described violence perpetrated by Israeli football hooligans, and their hideous racism.

They then deleted it. This is the original.

New! @3CR podcast: Dr John Symons @BikeWestVic: When will Victorian government act to protect vulnerable road users? Dynon, Footscray Rd, WGT, will any of the 56 recommendations from 'Inquiry into the impact of road safety' be acted upon? @abcmelbourne

Somehow the residents of this street one over from school got a 20 zone installed … what’s their secret I wonder!

[Apothem Data @apothemdata]

@7homask @VicGovAu @AnthonyC4PV My council put these out on my street a few times over a period of time and concluded that because only 17% of cars exceeded 55km/h on my 50km/h, that was within spec and there was no need to investigate any methods of traffic calming.

[thomask @7homask]

@CYNICWRITERHULK @VicGovAu @AnthonyC4PV They are - but the manned school crossing on Albion - get this - is *not* in a school zone. I’ve asked why and now (months later) these car counters have appeared either side of the crossing and including two side streets.

[thomask @7homask]

Here’s @VicGovAu deciding whether my kids’ lives are important enough to warrant slowing drivers from 50 to 40 - at a manned school crossing! @AnthonyC4PV
