“There’s a public health imperative to quickly expand the adoption of autonomous vehicles.” Would the author say the same about building bike lanes? Installing automatic traffic cameras? Requiring Intelligent Speed Assist? All of those are proven to save lives — and at a fraction of AVs' cost.

FYI: My exchange with the NYT op-ed writer on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Saw my first next-gen USPS truck in the wild!

‼️‼️ "Over the year, bike and scooter share carried about 60% as many trips as the state’s $2.15 billion SR-99 highway tunnel under downtown Seattle. During summer months, that number may have been more like 80%."

Montreal has an aggressive public transit plan & the province, a huge generator of hydro electric, has an EV adoption rate twice the Canadian average.

Remember this picture, & others like it, every time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970s. Many of the cities we admire made better choices regarding cars in the past. and are still making better choices today. Better choices instead of excuses.

City-scale logistics lets you move freight more nimbly than oversized trucks designed for the freeway.

@gordonofseattle.bsky.social @nondriver.bsky.social Lfg!

Rush hour traffic in Utrecht. Sound on 🔊 if you want to experience that rush hour IS possible without the constant, deafening noise of cars overpowering people talking.

Three months ago I broke my knee 🥲 So grateful to be walking again and only 5 degrees away from pre-break knee bending - lots of recovery to go but hope to be back on a real bike soon 🤞🏽very grateful to family & friends during this journey 🩻

A reminder that cars aren’t a technology problem. They’re a geometry problem.

If Congress is condemning Socialism, does that mean they are going to end corporate welfare?

Went to a Christmas Market in Copenhagen with @sassyarmand.bsky.social several times last week. Definitely wouldn't have if it cost $20 just to get in.

siiiigh

So instead of a cute Christmas market @pikeplacemarket.bsky.social is full of cars? What a missed opportunity.

But on demand transit is the future...right? Reported by @techcrunch.com What worries me- what happens to those of us who rely on transit in the communities that have been convinced to abandon fixed route systems because Via is the future. And if Via can't make the math work, then what?

I'm someone who takes 10+ trips on scooters per month. Are there bad riders? Yes. But if we won't collectively punish drivers, then we shouldn't collectively punish scooter riders. More lanes, more corrals, and possibly geofencing parking locations (to corners, etc) could help the issues.

Seattle’s historical boards and commissions are mostly reactionary fiefdoms.

Bike lane sweeper sighting in Copenhagen! Not electric though, could hear it coming from a block away

The Seattle Times comment section ☠️☢️

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Marjorie Taylor Greene, welcome to the war on hidden government subsidies for airlines.

This shit is why people don’t trust the Democratic Party.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

ST give us food in transit stations PLEASE

Second Berlin Bike Lane Sweeper™️ sighting of the trip!

Maybe you forgot to sign your ballot, or your signature didn't quite match the one on record. If you received a signature challenge letter and have questions, we have a web page for that. kce.wiki/SignatureCha... Folks who need to resolve a signature challenge have until 4:30 pm on November 24.

Urban pedestrian dwellers need Costco, too. Seattle when?

Sorry, but a lack of support for autonomous vehicles is not among Sec Pete's biggest missed opportunities at USDOT. For instance: 🔹 Failure to stop Tesla from lying about Autopilot, FSD, etc 🔹 Failure to curb car bloat 🔹 Continuing to spend fed $$ on highway expansions that won't fix congestion

Seattle 🤝 Berlin: bike lane sweepers

@davidseater.com wondering why Sound Transit doesn’t have food/beverage vendors at Link stations…

Dinner and a show on Iceland Air with @davidseater.com

Meanwhile, in the far-left progressive bastion of ... entire State of Utah: "The plan shows 3,100 miles of paths. The network would come within a mile of 95% of Utahns, connect to 33 school campuses, 31 state/national parks, and 74 high-capacity transit stations." www.sltrib.com/news/2025/10...

A few years ago I learned America has a thing called Trunk or Treat where people dress up, drive to a parking lot, and pretend it's ok we don't have walkable communities anymore.
