If there's a war on cars, why are pedestrians the ones who are disproportionately paying with their lives? Traffic deaths aren't unexpected, random episodes, they're the inevitable, systemic byproduct of roads designed to move cars at all costs. https://t.co/7CctqHUkHy
Just because pedestrians and cyclists are protected under the law doesn’t mean they are “equal” to cars. Ultimately, on the pavement itself, the bigger, heavier, faster vehicle will always assert control and seek dominance. It’s human nature.
Transit investment is so bad in the US that people are paying 10x or more for the convenience of ride share. When our poorest citizens are forced to use the most expensive transportation option, we have a serious public problem #transit#transportation
