@_mharvey Yikes hope it heals up fast! I had a similar issue but with my right arm for a month. Was awful and frustrating how stupid the “injury” was 🤦🏼♀️
@_mharvey Yeah I've had this issue here too. It's badly designed and in dire need of a rethink! Drivers get confused about 1. the fact that you exist out of nowhere and 2. what the rules are. That sounded and looked like a harrowing experience! I really hate when cars get so aggressive.
@QueenLeslie1982 I have this issue in slow shared zones too. Car drivers can’t comprehend the idea of slowing down and get so angry when you force them to :/
@MrSteveDriscoll It also really helped that Labour campaigned on the platform of delivering 10,000 homes a year; they threw every resource they could at building affordable homes. I’m not their biggest fan but this they absolutely got right 👍🏻
Hearing that there is a bit of an organised pushback to the speed changes as part of Katoa ka ora. These look really good - make lots of sense and should make our neighborhoods a much nicer place to be in. Feedback at https://t.co/g15O3lL2EK
@HaydenDonnell All these people going to Aus are in for a rude awakening come fire season. I left because the fires are getting worse and even if your house doesn’t burn down you get sick from the smoke you can’t escape. NZ is the best place to be.
@tomflood1 Depends on where you’re feeling deficient :) change can be effected in so many ways. I like to switch it up between macro & micro level change - e.g. political advocacy switched up with volunteering at community bike hubs :)
I live in hope that this will become more well-understood! Billions on a few highways will make traffic worse and will create additional problems! We can do better. https://t.co/jXDoA0XIir
👏🏻 successive research into the transport needs of those most disadvantaged in society find time and again that ALMOST ALL WISH they could get places without the huge cost drain of owning a car. They’re choosing between car and other essentials instead.
