I am just glad to see a potential mayor of New York City take an in interest in the bicyclist and pedestrian lives lost annually.

I just looked at the numbers in LA and it would be expected they are shocking too. Not that many people use a bike for deliveries in LA though. more for recreation and commuting, but not that many do their work on a bike.

Oh my heavens, I had no idea it was this many. I knew it is obviously dangerous, but this is horrific! This is a very important policy to address and Zohran has the guts and determination to get the job done. He’s running circles around Adams and Cuomo.

Wow. That is great. Do you know which one. LA has been touting that as an effort for some time. But it’s really not a priority in the way it needs to be. Both are pedestrians and bicyclists.

I am aware of them, I used to be a walker in LA and it was brutal on those streets. LA walks did great work, but I never felt like the needle moved much except during Covid (which was a dream in that regard.). I don’t live there now. I’ll look at what LA Walks is tracking. Thank you for sending.
