I’ll just say it again, the laws need to be rewritten to hold drivers far more accountable for their actions, no one who is driving attentively and responsibly runs over a **one-year-old**

that’s right
It’s “feels like -7” outside and people are ordering iced coffee at my neighborhood coffee shop. I’m shivering just hearing those orders.

Hochul's advisors from Uber recognized that "crash victims should not be compensated for their injuries" was a losing argument so they are trying to reframe the cause as a fight against repair fraud
To get to the bottom of car insurance fraud, I went straight to the experts at TACS Autobody in Glenmont.
We’re pumping the brakes on sky high insurance premiums.

really keen of chicago to recognize that bus transfers can be difficult to locate and to develop a high visibility marker to reduce the anxiety of using transit
Our new bus connection enhancements at the Lawrence, Argyle, Berwyn and Bryn Mawr stations now make your trip easier!

the number one impediment to emergency vehicles are the two rows of parked cars on nearly every street in the city
In response to a caller complaining about outdoor dining allegedly causing traffic, Menin says she wants to ensure the sheds don't do that or obstruct emergency vehicles.
Unclear if there's any proof they block either, since the structures take up what is usually free street parking.

this is an excellent interview with @rpa.org about the practical impacts of the gateway funding crisis.
“Time is not on our side and any delay is going to dramatically add to the cost of doing this project and, by the way, everybody knows we need to build this new tunnel.” said Tom Wright, president and CEO of the Regional Plan Association.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

when do the fines for Lyft begin @mayor.nyc.gov? the stations should have been cleared by now.
The Citi Bike rate keeps going up, even while most of the bikes remain trapped in the snow, completely unusable.
Bike share is a form of public transit, but the system's private owner, Lyft, isn't stepping up to the plate. New York commuters deserve better.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

One thing that this storm and the ensuing cold snap has proved is that the city MUST do more to put the heat on private business and property owners to clear snow, because the status quo is clearly not working.

This Day in Labor History: February 3, 1908. The Supreme Court decided the case of Loewe v. Lawlor. In it, it declared that unions violated the Sherman Anti-Trust Act by calling for a secondary boycott in solidarity with a strike. The Supreme Court--always terrible for the working class!!

sage. need we be reminded that the voters elected Mamdani on a platform of free buses? that alone should settle the dispute over whether his administration should prioritize one over the other. we can also dream to expand the subway. all of the induced transit ridership will surely make the case.
Two fantastic transit ideas — fast and free buses, and a 17-percent expansion of subway mileage — are being set up as adversaries instead of the complements they are, writes @Komanoff.

Daily News readers and reporters alike awoke this morning to pages and fonts we could barely recognize.
Apparently our hedge-fund owners thought New York's hometown paper needed to look more like generic mid-market wire copy.

It's unsettling how traffic violence is reported in the US. If the driver was going this street's speed limit of 25mph, there's a 90% chance this woman would be alive. But that's unmentioned. The driver was "cooperative." There will be no follow up. There will be no convictions. A life is lost.
