Cars, bikes, and transit all require specific infrastructure to safely provide mobility options. Approaching street design from a single angle (*cough* cars *cough*) results in unsafe and inefficient environments for everyone.

I asked him not to. (multiple times) I periodically stood guard when I had time. I scolded him when he first did it. I set up a sign. I even marked off the area with a grey line of tape. Nothing else I could’ve done, just another unavoidable accident.

This is why parking violations need to be clamped down on. Because when one person decides that the rules don’t apply to them then other people see it and copy it. Before you know it, you’ve got a pavement parking epidemic. Clamp down on it. Seize the vehicles. Crush them if necessary.

I find it so frustrating that our city recognizes we need slower speeds by spending tax dollars on "slow down" signs, but won't actually reduce speeds. #winnipeg #wpgpoli

ICYMI: “A lot of us are trapped in 1-Hour Cities right now. The alternative — having a lot more things close by, and a lot more time in our day — isn’t the conspiracy. It’s the cure.” Read all about the #1HourCityCinsoiracy in @usa.streetsblog.org. #UrbanTruth usa.streetsblog.org/2026/04/27/u...

“After analyzing crash data over a 13-year period in areas with separated bike lanes on city streets, researchers estimated that having a protected bike facility in a city would result in 44% fewer deaths and 50% fewer serous injuries than an average city.” Safer for ALL. Via @usa.streetsblog.org

Vancouver knows what's up. One of the first "the discussion" posters seen in the wild.

As if the city hasn’t already paused bike lane expansion ahead of the election. They cut $5 million from the road safety budget! What more does this walking hairdo want?

People still read this trash

People regularly attempt to murder people with a dangerous weapon and because it's a car it's framed as impatience or annoyance, instead of the deeply dangerous, violent behavior that it is.

Entitled fucks everywhere!

The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened. This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.

Investments in transit are a great way to combat high gas prices, permanently, if Premier Kinew does another gas tax holiday instead of increasing the transit funding I promise to personally haunt him at all public events dressed up as an oil well www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...

Why don't we have better public transit, and more safe routes to walk, roll and cycle? "It’s the fossil fuel industry that wants you to burn more gasoline. It’s auto manufacturers who want to keep you buying more cars." #UrbanTruth #climatesky

Whenever a driver does something bad there is a race for excuses: Maybe they had a medical emergency. Maybe they had a bad day. The sun was in their eyes. The cyclist came out of "nowhere!" Whenever a cyclist is threatened or hit there is a race to find reasons why they deserved it.

Every speed limit reduction currently passed by council or slated to be discussed this week at Public Works is being delayed until after the election. Not because we have any need for further info, but because Scott Gillingham and Janice Lukes are big ol cowards afraid of annoying a single driver.

dangerous.

cities: we need lanes to be really wide, for safety also cities: people are driving too fast on our streets for some reason

This City has to Pay Cyclist $9.25 Million Following Crash Linked to Bike Lane Design. momentummag.com/this-city-ha...

Cyclists get mad that drivers are killing and injuring people and are treated as hysterical meanies Drivers throw a fit over losing 4 parking spots and are treated as people with serious concerns over how our streets should be designed

Vehicular pedestrianism is based on the theory that "pedestrians fare best when they act and are treated as drivers of vehicles."

Earlier this week, a person biking on Hemlock was hit by a driver near the Manor Park Public School. - Painted bike lanes were blocked after the collision - No safe detour was provided for people on bikes Read a parent’s letter to the mayor about this. bikeottawa.ca/2026/05/01/c...

It's good to see how 30km/h limits are so heavily recommended in the PIN report on Cycling in Europe from European Transport Safety Council etsc.eu/wp-content/u...

WATCH: “You’ve been lied to about roads for 60 years.” And you’re still being lied to today. Building more and wider roads WON’T reduce traffic congestion or support the economy. But they WILL cost us billions, increase pollution, emissions, noise and road deaths, and trap us in longer commutes.

Finding out I was considered "radical" for wanting kids to be able to get school safely and independently was shocking and what motivated me to try and help change that perspective. Culture Shift developed with @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social

Some politicians think being anti-20mph is a "killer policy" that will win them some votes. They are right about the former! In the year before setting a 20mph default in Wales, when 20mph was only outside schools and hospitals, there were 630 more urban/village road casualties than the year after.

26 miles of car free London streets today.

this morning, someone *intentionally* almost hit me with their car to make a point they almost killed me. to make a point.

BRANDON — City council is urging the provincial government to let it lower the city’s default speed limit to help make residential roads safer.

Fuck this. road.cc/news/driverl...

Such fucking bullshit.

Guy almost hits me in the mall parking lot and yells at me “I didn’t even see you” Bro… you should lose your license if that’s the case

Last week a pedestrian was killed at Oak & 6th. The city says: "A study was completed at Oak St & 6th Ave, and a full signal is already warranted. However, based on our priority list, this location is not ranked above other similar locations.” They knew this spot was dangerous & did nothing...(1/2)

Bike lanes do take space away from drivers. Why not get rid of sidewalks too, hell school zones really slow drivers down..get rid of schools! While we're at it i'm kind of tired of those pesky residential areas with their people and stop signs - no more homes! Nothing but roads and parking lots.

IF YOU BUILD A BIKE LANE THAT DOESN'T CONNECT TO ANOTHER BIKE LANE THEN YOU DIDN'T BUILD A BIKE LANE

Pedestrian Beg Buttons are the worst.

From the IG: this sort of thing is all over #OttCity and seen as normal..touted as part of our “record setting cycling investment” but is fundamentally unsafe. @brenttoderian.bsky.social @penalosag.bsky.social @urbantruth.bsky.social www.instagram.com/reel/DUih5o1...

It’s so hard to figure out why #OttCity’s cycle track surfaces are so bumpy. Anyway, please enjoy this nice shot of a crane. #OttBike

Terrible policies get terrible results! City clears the streets, they should also clear the sidewalks!

Our system relies on children to look both ways because adults driving don't. Great strategy.

Gonna be hilarious when you don’t pay taxes at Costco or Superstore but do at your corner store

Winnipeg Transit is unreliable fucking garbage!

Thousands of people drive into Winnipeg daily and pay zero to city infrastructure!

It has taken more than 4 years to get a 'pilot project' passed, which actually won't start until next year, and really all that 'pilot project' does is change some signs — we're supposed to be impressed that such a feat was even possible.

Next time someone tries arguing that it’s “social engineering” (cue ominous music) to give people more CHOICE to walk, bike & take public transit in their city, tell them that designing our current car DEPENDENCY has been the largest and most damaging social engineering experiment in human history.

The Janice Lukes Aquatic Centre already exists — you can find it distributed throughout the city in bike lane potholes and puddles with no drainage.

Fun fact, the bike valet at Sea Bears game will be available to all regardless if you are attending the game. So even if you just want to come downtown for a meal, yes, you have a secure place to park. #winnipeg
