The District of Columbia has experienced 8 traffic fatalities so far in 2026, compared to 25 in all of 2025. DC is on a pace for 60 fatalities this year. @mayorbowser.dc.gov @ddotdc.bsky.social, what actions are you taking?

And because we love @ward5familybiking.bsky.social so much, commit to joining their next family bike ride in March and earn a #TranspoBINGO square on the honor system.

Our first cancel since inception! Safety first. Play @transpobingo.bsky.social bingo instead!

My dear friend Nader alerted me to two Iranian members of the Arsenal family, Aref Jafarzadeh and Amir Housein, who were killed while seeking freedom in Iran. We remember them. ❤️

We've had our issues here in DC, but the good people of the Twin Cities are really going through it right now. Please support them if you can.

Our initial analysis is up. The video footage appears to show that the gun was taken away from the man before he was shot. He was UNARMED before any of the shots were fired.

The world should not come here. There should not be a World Cup here. I spoke out against the last World Cup because of concerns I had about human rights violations and it’s only right that I express the same concerns and condemnations now.

Yet another car on the trail tonight around 7:30pm at S st NE

2014 MMB: In 10 years, well have ZERO roadway fatalities and serious injuries. 2025 MMB: We're back to 2014 levels! Our strategies are working.

"Slow down to fuck over ICE" is actually an anti-speeding message that may resonate with drivers

Not the main issue in this video, but why does it appear that the ICE vehicle has a disability tag hanging from the mirror?

Photojournalist Aaron Marckell Williams was killed in a crosswalk as the result of a police chase over a traffic violation. DC local law had made such chases illegal - House Republicans voted to overturn that law last year.

"You're not allowed to interrupt a lawful enforcement operation" "Do you think this officer was wrong in defending his life against a deranged [person]?" "These people are going to try to arrest our law enforcement for doing their jobs." — JD Vance on Renee Good

Good time to remind people that after a white supremacist killed a woman with his car in Charlottesville, the GOP passed a flurry of laws intended to encourage people to run over protesters

Bikemore is launching a Families for Safe Streets chapter!! We met the organizer, Amril, a few days ago after they came over to chat as soon as they saw us park our bikes :) FSS has been so successful pushing legislation to makes streets safer. I hope ppl get involved! www.baltimorefss.org/contact

Really fun to join @ward5familybiking.bsky.social today for one of their monthly rides. So many kids, so many cargo bikes, and even Santa came along!

We join Sam, a DC hit-and-run victim, in calling on Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie to move B26-0057, the Motor Vehicle Insurance Modernization Act. It's time to update DC's 40-year-old insurance minimums.

Brooke & Reid from @ward5familybiking.bsky.social shot a video about DC Ward 5 bikeway priorities and the Tuesday, Dec. 9 @ddotdc.bsky.social Strategic Bikeways Plan Ward 5 workshop, 6-8 pm. Visit waba.org/2025/12/03/d... for a WABA priorities write-up and a link to workshop info. #BikeDC

Into my mind, the thought begins to seep If no one's fond of fucking me Maybe no one's fucking fond of me Yeah, maybe I'm the only one for me I'll put my dreams high on a shelf I'll have to learn to like myself Maybe I'm the only one for me

NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

Opinion: Don't be reassured when DDOT says it's committed to road safety. Under the Complete Streets road-design philosophy, the agency can weigh safety as just one among many priorities.

Zohran Mamdani: potentially the NYC Streets Mayor of our wildest dreams

Another terrible, community destroying tragedy that we collectively agree is worth it. wapo.st/476q2sQ

I’m so sorry for Lisa’s family who are now going through some of the worst pain imaginable. We are failing so many families with unsafe driving and roads.

I’ve been through rock springs and learned about its tragic history. So glad that they have expanded the memorial and are not trying to just erase the painful history. We need more of this.

Immigration authorities are continuing to patrol with D.C. police weeks after the expiration of President Trump’s federal takeover, leaving some local leaders and residents alarmed about D.C. police’s role in immigration enforcement.

Important paper from @rycalder.bsky.social, Rachel Clark, and Claire Summa analyzing 2019-2023 trauma data from DC traffic crashes. They found that injury rates *increased* and that racial disparities exist *for every user type* including pedestrians & cyclists. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41014831/

We're grateful for @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social's leadership to author and pass the STEER Act and for @dcattorneygeneral.bsky.social's role in addressing the most reckless drivers on DC streets. 💛 We're also looking fwd to DC and VA's implementation of anti-speeding tech (ISA) to ensure safer speeds

Wasn't this one the hypotheticals in the supreme court cases on presidential immunity that was deemed too far fetched: That the president would be immune from criminal charges if he openly used to his powers to illegally kill civilians or political opponents? I guess we got there pretty quickly...

JD Vance is doing the Reichstag Fire the right way. by Ezra Klein

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Quite the juxtaposition that one of the next skeets in my feed following this was about trump pardoned drug dealer Ross Ulbricht getting in on the MAGA grift: bsky.app/profile/rmac...

Really want to thank @mayorbowser.bsky.social for her efforts making my kids walk to and from school feel less safe and less hospitable

Was going to take the kids to the new activation by @downtowndc.org.web.brid.gy in Franklin Park after school pickup but watched a reckless and dangerous Park Police response that involved officers almost hitting pedestrians to respond to a single unhoused person and now I'm not.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy

Apparently this IS a (somewhat unconventional) ghost bike, missing a plaque, for Constance Holden, who was killed at that intersection in 2010

It is dangerous for the National Guard to be deployed in residential areas — for people here, for Guard members themselves, and for the communities back home which they are supposed to serve. Armored tactical vehicles should not be on city streets.
