@HannahLebovits I was privileged to do it for several close friends who died too young then kept the book of scheduling (very hard job!) You’ve inspired me to volunteer again
There is no doubt that we have made progress in these 20 years, but there is still a long way to go. Including NGOs in decision-making and evidence-based interventions are key elements in this process. Let's keep working together for a #SafeMobility!
Donald Trump was the first president in 28 years to not serve a second term, the first to lose the Presidency, the House and the Senate in a single term, the first president in 129 years to lose the popular vote twice, the first ever to fail to hit a 50% approval rating at any point during their presidency, the first to be impeached twice, to be banned from social media and the first to have their home searched for official national security documents, or anything else for that matter, the first serving or former president to be found liable of sexual abuse, business fraud and defamation, the first, second, third and fourth serving or former president to be criminally indicted and the first ever with a mugshot.
The “red wave” never came in 2022, last November’s elections were a tsunami of blue, and since the overturning of Roe Vs Wade, Republicans have lost 8 out of 8 state ballot measure battles on the issue of abortion.
All of this, as they’ve removed their own Speaker, expelled their own member, whittled their already razor-thin House majority down to essentially nothing, maintain a minority in the Senate, and have had signed into law, the fewest bills since the Great Depression.
Oh yeah, and they’re tethered to a quadruply indicted business fraud sexual abuser who faces multiple fairly imminent criminal convictions.
They’ve done nothing about inflation or the prices of eggs, gas or milk, and they’re flat out refusing to do a damn thing about the border, yet they continue to spend our hard-earned tax dollars on sham d*ck pic hearings and phony impeachments.
When you put all of that together, it really is shocking that no one with a single firing synapse wants to see any of them in power, isn’t it?
Finding from a new study of drivers passing bicyclists:
Road characteristics (speed, width, etc) affect safety/risk more than driver attitudes.
Implication: For safer bike/car interactions, focus on infrastructure -- not driver education or signage.

There is something innate and magical about transportation. Its also exquisitely human as our lives are better when there are better, cleaner, safer, and more efficient ways to get there says @SecretaryPete at #TRBAM.
