This is the 12th pedestrian fatality in Vancouver - that we're aware of - in 2025. (23 total when including Lapu Lapu). Last year "only" saw 7 pedestrian fatalities. The city is moving backwards on this and our mayor is MIA.

The streetscape where this happened. No sidewalks, the only bit of gravel space beside the road used for more parking (despite massive driveways and garages at each house). This is a half block from a daycare and elementary school.

Horrified to learn of another pedestrian killed on Hastings in the DTES. This is the most dangerous stretch of road in the whole province for pedestrians yet the city refuses to do anything other than put up 30km/h signs with no enforcement. Hastings needs a road diet and real traffic calming.

Can confirm. This is literally the most aggravating thing about being partially blind. You have to look really hard so a driver doesn't try to "beat" you through the crosswalk. And by beat, I mean kill you with their car.
