The bonus #TransitCat of the day is Ghost, a cat who works as a bike inspector and tire installation supervisor.💜
Apparently, tire installation also requires supervision.

That's why utility poles wear their little yellow safety vests.

We have heard DOT and law enforcement officials say this here, too.
One of the more disturbing sections of the city's report on right turns on reds : they say that banning right turns on reds will lead to worse safety because drivers will be impatient and kill/injure people due to being inconvenienced.
We can't seriously be hiding behind this right?

The most profound event in my childhood was moving from a cloistered, car-dependent California suburb to a small, walkable/bikeable town in Oregon at age 10. Six years before I could legally drive I suddenly had actual autonomy, instead of being trapped in a car all day. That changes you!

And yet there is no road space on Bradley Blvd/191 for a bike lane.🤷

I’m opposed to any plan, especially one that ignores public input, to cut off safe biking routes for Virginians.
Forcing bikes to share walkway space with pedestrians or roads with cars is dangerous, and ripping up existing biking routes to do it is nonsensical.

We’ve heard now from several reliable sources that federal agencies may remove a substantial chunk of the 15th St NW protected bike lanes near the National Mall in February, possibly as early as next week.

Two simple tricks to avoid citations from speed cameras:
1. If you're driving, obey the speed limit!
2. Go by not-driving: walk or bike, take the bus or train, or get a ride with someone who is able to obey the speed limit while driving!

Look at the rage against speed cameras - every dad at hockey feels “they’re just stealing from us” and one recounted how many times he has been fined and how outrageous it is…ya know bud, there’s a solution to getting fined for speeding and it ain’t ripping down the speed cameras!!

In 2028, I will vote for whoever proposes the most effective way to transport watermelons in bulk or bins by truck. I am a single issue voter.

Blueberry is the #TransitCat of the day. Please clear the sidewalk for Blueberry.💜
This is Blueberry.
And yes. I did buy him a fancy pet stroller. However, not all of the sidewalk is clear yet.
