Thank goodness number plates on cars have completely stopped every crash from happening and stopped cars from killing thousands of people every year.

Arrogant, inconsiderate drivers is a raging pandemic on Melbourne streets.

Ignorance, incompetence, or malicious? All are unacceptable. www.reddit.com/r/melbournec...

The people just helping schoolkids cross the streets made dangerous from car drivers want to wear body cameras due to abuse from drivers. The insane world we live in. Cars ruin cities.

How the media and police pretends to be shocked each and everytime is beyond m

Using your oversized yank tank as a deadly weapon. Won't even make the news.

It's always "them". "Someone else" is always the problem. Those [insert group] here. Those ebikes. Those older drivers. Those BMW drivers. Those over 40. Time to take a hard look at our car dependency, unsafe infrastructure, lack of enforcement, and ignorance. www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

When do we apply the same scrunity to cars and car driver the same way we have on ebikes?

Didn't know the footpath is free parking so long if you turn on your 'free parking anywhere' sign aka the hazard lights. What a lifehack!

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12... Minimum parking requirements are on the review board! Dare I hope? We should have minimum PT, walkability, and cycling safety scores instead.

Love seeing so many people out on their bikes today ☀️☀️

It's not even December, and deaths lost on our roads have exceeded all of last year already. We pretend the problem is anything other than dangerous driving, dangerous infrastructure for anyone outside in a car, and excessively growing vehicle sizes.

$12 billion dollar road project vs the footpath of the Yarraville Gardens next to it.

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11... Yet another horrific murder and all they can say about it is "terrible terrible story". We've been so desensitised to violence and deaths caused by cars and drivers on a daily basis.

Only in Melbourne the Dia de Muertos walk gets relegated to the footpaths and the endless weekly protest get to occupy the whole street with police escort.

Not sure if it's incompetence or arrogant indifference that has led this Ferrari driver down Merri Creek trail. www.reddit.com/r/melbournec...

Another senseless tragic car violence. 5-year old girl on footpath killed by man in white ute. The deafening silence will ensue.

When your dumb emotional support vehicle is too large to fit in a parking spot and parked over the footpath.

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10... any safety blitz coming up @victoriapolice? No? Crickets?

Look how efficient the narrow dooring lane move so many people compared to cars and look how many people use this street. Build it and they will come. I can't wait for the Wellington Street upgrade.

Another unbelievable tragedy, we've been so desensitised to road violence that we aren't rioting on our streets to demand safer streets from cars and trucks.

Car fire 🔥 near Richmond station. Won't make the news unless it involves an ebike. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Must be those ebikes @victoriapolice. How's the crackdown going? 45 fatalities on Victorian roads since the "crackdown" started 2 months ago. Also, keep an eye out!?! What kind of weak response is this. If a single postie was hit by an ebike, you'd be calling for a complete ban and crackdown.

Why does the recycling station get protective bollards and not bike lanes?

Imagine being this impatient, you're willing to kill someone over a few seconds.

So you're telling me *infrastructure* is the way to improve safety? Shocking I tell you. Now apply this for people walking and cycling too.

Grim. Tragic. Angry. If this is yet another $2,000 fine for killing a person (see www.threads.com/@liveable_me...), I'd truly lost faith in humanity.

Ditto. We have so little 'third space' in our city. Places you can just exists without the expectations of buying something. Here real estate is a speculative asset to make money off and it shows.

Some people complain when bikes take up space on a train, yet they don’t seem bothered by cars and trucks clogging up the middle of the CBD and taking up far more room

Running red lights, getting more and more egregious each day.

21 deaths in 30 days in Victoria. Still waiting for some action beyond thoughts and prayers and best we can do is blame ebikes I guess.

17 people have died in Victorian streets in the last month since Victoria police blitz on ebikes. Sure we're targetting the right thing?

www.theage.com.au/national/vic... $2000 fine for killing a schoolboy. Outrage: 0 Bills introduced to curb 'dangerous' vehicle or driving: 0 Safety blitz launched by police: 0 Number of news outlet running opinion pieces on how dangerous SUVs are: 0

Another hit and run from reckless drivers, while vicpol continues their month-long crackdown on ebikes, to-be-banned from trains for being 'too dangerous'. Thoughts and prayers are cheap, taking action is expensive.

Brilliant, exciting new station with so much opportunities. This area could be developed into our own version of what SOHO is to London.

Brilliant, exciting new station with so much opportunities. This area could be developed into our own version of what SOHO is to London.

Another tragic death from another hit and run driver right in front of wife and son. Enough deaths on our streets from cars, crackdown on mobile phone use, speeding, reckless and dangerous driving overdue

Those dangerous ebikes, no wonder vicpol is spending time and resources cracking down on them /s

Anything other than creating safe cycling and walking infrastructure, and providing frequent and safe public transport. This is some American-level of car dependency dystopian future.

When do we say enough is enough? www.instagram.com/reel/DNypze5...

www.instagram.com/reel/DNwEWhs... Another tragic death in Coburg, police searching for a SUV. It's high time we stopped accepting these deaths as an unavoidable fact and start cracking down on dangerous drivers and vehicles.

Decades ago, I supported mandatory helmet laws for people riding bikes. Then I was convinced by evidence and the bigger picture that such laws are actually counter-productive in many ways. This NZ article explains some. I support helmets, but not mandatory helmet laws. Build safe infrastructure.

Screw all the drivers who are incapable of staying off the crossings and stay behind the lines. This was intentional.

This morning on my way to work, I saw someone on a mobility scooter completely blocked by someone who parked fully over the footpath. There was no way across other than going onto the road around parked cars. Inconsiderate, selfish, and arrogant epidemic of driver entitlement on our streets

When are we banning these dangerous contraptions that doesn't fit in a regular parking space?

You won't been believe how dangerous ebikes are. Oops, sorry, it's another SUV driver. Gotta find a way to blame those ebikes somehow though.

Another day, another tragedy from the real dangers on our streets. It has always been cars, and the utes and SUVs that's getting larger and more dangerous. Where's the outrage and crackdown on cars? Also, it's saying something really sad - "rare step of charging driver with manslaughter".

Endless property speculation and profiteering, backed by policies that treat housing as an asset class to be profited from instead of a right to shelter will have long term negative consequences for everyone.

youtu.be/pjVxx4brBI8 As opposed to cars which has absolutely no dangers and is perfectly safe and doesn't kill thousands of people each year. The fear mongering continues.
