In medical devices (and other fields), there is a concept called "foreseeable misuse" which engineers must account for in the design and mitigate the risks to prevent foreseeable problems.

Found a tool where I can make my dream transit system for Boston, and someone else already mapped out the current T network. I think I found a new Funemployment task

Every top Bluebikes station and the highest bike mode share was on Mass Ave, so why is there still such a huge safety gap from Symphony to BMC?

I sort lawless bicycle behavior into three categories:
1. They genuinely believe they're making the safer option for themselves (Idaho stop and related)
2. They're self-absorbed/oblivious - includes most children
3. They're assholes, but at least they're only on a bike instead of in a car.

Boston should be one of the most livable cities on the planet. But every decision still gets routed through defensive, “how long have you lived here?” parking-first politics. One day I hope we get leadership willing to break that cycle instead of treating the status quo as a political safety jacket.

Speed cameras work.
When cameras are installed, they issue many violations in the first month, followed by a steep decline in the second month. This suggests that the cameras effectively deter speeding by changing underlying driver behavior rather than relying on sustained revenue extraction.

Mayor Wu could, of course, dramatically enable & accelerate building more homes in Boston to alleviate the City’s budget needs _and_ reduce individual residential taxpayers’ taxes.
A net increase in taxpayers in multi-family buildings means better spreading the tax burden.

We’re fighting to lower residential property taxes in Boston and need your help.
Go to malegislature.gov/Search/FindMyLegislator to contact your state legislators and call on them to pass our plan for tax relief.

Yeah! That is just not an affordable goal. If you want to live somewhere carfree you just need to make the big bucks. It sucks but it's true. Demand exceeds supply. If you want to work on this please join AHMA

@crystalvisits of course, making it physically impossible to block the lanes by separating them is an *even better* solution.

BTW, what happens when you install a protected bike lane (where no bike facilities existed) between some of your densest residential neighborhoods (Dupont Circle and north) and the bit of downtown that hosts a huge university and an alphabet-soup of international orgs?
