@FireRetardant @LifeInMultipleChoice If you have to drive regularly you should also write to your local politicians that your needs are not being met safely because it’s too difficult for you to travel in ways that are safer and more efficient.
Enemy of car culture and cisheteropatriarchy
Profile & banner image: bad so-called pedestrian safety campaigns. Profile pic is a poster saying “WALK SAFE most pedestrian crashes are the pedestrian’s fault” & banner is a cartoon crab on a lifeguard stand holding flags that say “save yourself” and “use crosswalks”.

@huginn @vividspecter It’s not like the potential for another Trump administration wasn’t foreseeable. Hochul and her allies should have considered that and Pete Buttigieg and others at USDOT should have reminded them. Then again, when I started urban planning school in 2005, the potential for congestion pricing in New York was the talk of the town so it’s not like these centrist cowards are the first to delay it.
@NarrativeBear @lnxtx No, people have a right to use legally owned weapons in self-defense, so a driver has no right to drive recklessly and endanger random people and can only use their car as a weapon if their life is in imminent danger from someone else’s assault, such as a pedestrian standing in front of their car firing a gun at them.
