We would never tolerate 3,000 deaths per month on America's airlines or subways, but on our roads we act like it's normal.
It's time for a new mentality for roadway safety.
I’m very proud to put my name on this bill to make our streets safer. It builds on our Vision Zero Act and can change the way we walk through our city. Whether you’re walking to school, work, or the grocery store - you’ll be able to do it more safely if this becomes law.
World Day of Remembrance is this Sun 11/21. But you can stop by at Union Station anytime now thru Sun to honor your experience with traffic violence, thank a first responder who helped with your crash, and to demand an end to this preventable and growing crisis. #WDOR2021

We have seen an unprecedented level of recklessness on our streets: speeding, running of red lights and stop signs, dangerous road play by vehicles, and consequent deaths and injuries.
Our streets are not safe. They are not safe for children or pedestrians or cyclists.
Just talked with Cmdr Kane. Child struck by a driver near 7th & F St NE injured, but very lucky that injuries relatively minor & expected to be okay. Is with family & getting care.
#VisionZeroDC has to be more than a hashtag. We must fully fund & implement VisionZero Act now!
