it's makes me think of the part in @jessiesinger.bsky.social's There Are No Accidents that highlights the differences in how safety is perceived by men and women, that women more accurately perceive their safety than men. And that becomes a problem when the systems are designed primarily by men.

A terrific thread from @jessiesinger.bsky.social about VA's new law. Important model for other states -- and demonstrates the power of working on state legislation. Give her VERY short thread a read!

Three, this limits interactions with police. As NHTSA’s William Haddon once said: “We’ve all been miseducated that the way to solve this problem is more squads of police chasing Americans so that they wouldn’t drive 120 mph, rather than arranging cars so they can’t go that fast.”
