The bicycle and train are a powerful combination offering fast flexible and sustainable mobility across regions.

In the Netherlands this model is widely embraced. Commuters cycle to the station park, securely and continue their journey by rail.

NEW: Car bonnets are becoming a half-centimetre higher every year, driving road safety fears.

This #carspreading trend where supersized SUVs crowd out space in towns and cities is also leading to cars that are more dangerous in a crash.

Let’s say that again: “Car crashes are the second leading cause of death of American children.” Somehow we Americans are still pushed on the idea that bigger cars are safer. Nasty cognitive dissonance.

Car crashes are the second leading cause of death of American children. And it's entirely preventable.

Education and behavior change alone won't stop it. A major problem is road design.

I'm so glad the issue is reaching more mainstream conversations. www.sciencefriday.com/segments/kil...

The Lack Of Science In Road Design Is Deadly

Are traffic engineering decisions based on evidence-based research? Not as much as you might think.

The problem with riding bikes is that a lot of the time when you’re not riding bikes, you’re just thinking, “Fuck, I’d rather be riding bikes than the bullshit that I’m currently doing.”
