West Sacramento Mayor Cabaldon at #SACOG transportation committee:
"For context, the number of #JUMP bikes blocking sidewalks pales in comparison to the # of cars blocking sidewalks and bike lanes"

@LAPDHQ USA perpetrated an attack on Iran. The Iranians in LA are Angelenos to the core- moreso than the racial profiling police on LAPD. Do your job, serve and protect Angelenos, don't be a proxy in Trump's made-up war.
“It's not just an impression. The number of bicycles increased by 54% between September 2018 & September 2019, on 56 sites equipped with counters by the City of #Paris. In September, the meters recorded 1630 daily cyclists per section on average, against 1030 a year earlier!”
Lessons from #Japan: great #slowstreets examples in Kawaguchi! Does your city have streets like this -- narrow, quiet, active, oriented toward people walking and biking?
If you only have few lanes to convey traffic, public transport is the space efficient winner.
If you want flexible individual transport, walking and cycling are winners.
Car is always the loser & you'll have to destroy your city if you want that kind of transport for the majority
‘If you want to save pedestrian lives, slow down the vehicles. Install more crosswalks. Add speed bumps. Lower speed limits. Widen sidewalks. Narrow roads.’ It’s not rocket science, folks.
