The 16% will always present themselves.

We need the courage to take away their licenses for good.

How does this even happen⁉️😭

A woman somehow drove her car onto Seattle’s elevated light rail tracks at Mount Baker Station on Wednesday evening, bringing train service to a halt. 😳🚆

Witnesses say the driver told people she was “following GPS” after ending up on the tracks and driving a significant distance before getting stuck. The vehicle had to be removed from the guideway, causing major delays for riders across the 1 Line. #DUBSEA

@big_pedestrian Yep, they take the wrong lessons from 85%, and instead try to placate the super speeders.

[big_pedestrian @big_pedestrian]

This is basically the US DOT 85% rule in reverse. An elegant symmetry for justice and safer streets.

I dive deeper into the 16% dilemma here: https://t.co/GXaSbA10Nu

[Politics & Education @PoliticsAndEd]

@dubseatv The 16% always show themselves. They shouldn’t be allowed to drive.

I know I rag on LA a lot, but this place can be absolutely stunning sometimes.

[VB Knives @Empty_America]

The best way to educate on these issues to point out that 75%-100% of the structures in our most favored urban areas would be illegal to build today.

Many won't believe at first, but when you get it, you get it.

@an_anna_liszt @Noahpinion you are clueless

[Politics & Education @PoliticsAndEd]

@an_anna_liszt @Noahpinion Bad take. Japan is worse and has worked it out. It's not 1906.
