We went to City Hall today to shine a light on the fact that SF has no traffic safety policy or plan.
We delivered a letter to Mayor @danielluriesf.bsky.social asking for a new #VisionZeroSF policy by July 30 & a new plan by Sept. 30.
Read & echo the letter at walksf.org/DearMayorLurie

S.F.’s new speed cameras are too late to help my mom — but they could help others
What if that driver hadn’t been going so fast? Maybe my mom wouldn’t have had a severe brain injury. ... Maybe she’d still like the mom I once knew.
