I have this option through my employer (not just Lyft but Uber as well) & they still won't provide me pre-tax Clipper Card benefits. I assume it's attractive as a program because it scales internationally & is more popular with employees than transit balance (& I say this a big transit booster).

A survey of 400 Bay Area parents found that 31% of parents who live less than 2 miles to school drive their 10-14 year old kid to school because of Stranger Danger and 2% drive because of Traffic Concerns: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Ugh nevermind, Papan's AB 1557 has now been amended to reduce the speed cap to 16 mph for both Class 1 (pedal assist, currently 20 mph speed cap) & Class 2 (throttle assist, currently 20 mph cap) e-bikes. Imagine if legislators cared this much about 4 mph speed differences for driver of 2 ton+ cars

The ironclad law of American politics: gas price goes up, presidential approval goes down

Level boarding would be fantastic

Oh good fucking God. You just got re-elected with 93.2% of the vote. Govern properly and show people that Progressive Governance works. "Community Input" is Democrat Speak for "excuse to do nothing and retreat into poll-tested defensive crouch." Why don't Democrats understand Revealed Preference?

If @nithyaforthecity.bsky.social makes the run-off, she's the next Mayor of Los Angeles.

White suv: 4.65m. 0.2s to pass = Driving 50mph in a 25 residential. I caught up with her at the playground where she parked. I asked how fast she was going. Showed her my daughter and that this is unacceptable behavior. She didn't care. Reported to police.

El Camino? More like El Diablo!

A Caltrain plus Bart kind of day!

Car – free happy hour in San Bruno today, awesome conversations! Centennial Plaza is beautiful and San Mateo Ave. is a real gem. Had a great conversation with Councilman Salazar about SB 79 and my household’s reliance on transit

Has Congress reclaimed its war powers yet?

Today was "take your dad on the bus day"--successful day!

It’s so funny how my whole life I heard how bad state pension liability is for California and how it’s this massive problem but now FAIR plan liability is 5x as large, state legislators keep proposing ways to get the state to pick up the tab, and it barely gets any press coverage at all.

Environmentalism, folks

A felony hit-and-run happened on a designated bike boulevard adjacent to a preschool, at an intersection with documented collision history, in a city that has had a Vision Zero commitment since 2015--and the police department's response: "wear a helmet" www.smdailyjournal.com/news/local/h...

Who said that local gov are great financial stewards?

To recap: A 2.25 mile train that has been in the works since 2018 will not open in time for the World Cup after also not opening in 2023 as originally planned because sections of it were demolished when roadways were expanded to accommodate more car traffic into the airport. De-incorporate LA.

I was blocked for this exchange but I think it’s really bad someone with a platform this big talking about environmental policy feels comfortable weighing in on land use and is apparently unaware of how VMT models impact both housing and job growth.

If a candidate for office rides a bicycle then that is a very promising sign!

@sacbee.com is doing an amazing job lambasting the state & Gov Newsom for cuts to the already immensely over-subscribed Active Transportation Program, delaying critical bike/walk safety projects that will certainly cost dozens of lives. www.sacbee.com/news/local/t... www.sacbee.com/news/local/t...

AB 413 gets the goods. State law really does create legal liability for cities, compelling them to improve pedestrian safety. Hat tip & thank you for protecting us, @votealexlee.bsky.social

👀 "the recession had extended Americans’ life spans — in part because people ended up driving less, and therefore had fewer fatal accidents, and because less driving and economic activity translated into less air pollution."

@caltrain.com do you do parking enforcement at your Broadway station in Burlingame? Seems like Daly City PD are dumping their vehicles there

Keeping the Bay Area's transit going and growing is essential -- but at a time where gas prices are skyrocketing, transit service is on the verge of getting cut. Help save & improve transit throughout the region! www.transbaycoalition.org/regional-tra...

In the US we hide the operating costs of transportation through privatizing it in assuming that everyone owns a car—and then we villainize the operational costs of public transit at the farebox. There is no “fair fight”—the system is rigged by design

You know what to do

Driving is a choice

@caltrain.com — could you please improve the BikeLink locker marketing? Low cost to add this prominent stencil, people would understand what the hell the lockers do, and bike car riders would celebrate

It's absolutely astounding the measures Los Angeles will go to intentionally NOT make their streets safer. santamonicanext.org/2026/03/los-...

American hero!

“What happens when the Venezuelan woman caring for your mom with Alzheimer’s gets deported?”

In theory, 92% of Americans "own" a car. 1 in 7 are driving them on our roads without insurance & millions are forcibly losing their cars to loan repossession per year. Hell of a system we have here! BUY AN EBIKE TODAY!
