My dream... my neighbour's children can go from our street to anywhere in Exeter without having to use a car just to be safe. Is that so radical?

Commenting as Govt launch a road safety strategy.
Every death on our roads is unacceptable. We need a Vision Zero ethos: no deaths or serious injury. Change driving culture, reject speeding, use speed-limiting tech, strengthen sentences, end ‘accident’ language. Driving is a privilege, not a right.

Road casualties are utterly normalised in political debate, but in England and Wales alone, on average around 80 people are killed or suffer injuries which could change their lives forever *every single day*. More should be done.

This is very good. He even gets the language right that too many of our media outlets still fail on. People aren't randomly killed by "cars", but by people driving them. And people are men, women, children, not defined by whether they are "a pedestrian" or "a cyclist". 🙌🏻

Not this absolute rubbish again. He’s been pushing this same made-up pet theory for years based on simplistic assumptions that contradict the actual evidence of both pollution & vehicle miles around LTNs. Why does The Times repeatedly sanction his ignorant fag-packet nonsense?

The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.
The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic.
Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to blame violence against women on migrants doesn’t just collapse under scrutiny - it actively distracts us from where the harm really happens, and who is actually responsible.

Interesting FYI @exetercycling.bsky.social, I couldn't get past here on my regular bike the other day. I can see how it would completely exclude someone on a mobility scooter or arriving with a pushchair.
The new access from "Ikea bridge pathway" to big Tescos Exeter is great - unless your 🧑🦽🚲🚼means are unable to squeeze past parked cars. Trolleys also in way. We've written to Tescos inviting them to reconsider disabled access from this entrance.
We'll keep you updated.

Is it common for people to find it much easier to imagine that car travel can always be improved (parking provided, congestion reduced, cheaper fuel) while seeing problems with any other transport as inherent and unchangeable (delayed/costly buses, streets being unsafe to cycle or walk/wheel)?

Société Générale said they’d stop funding coal.
But instead underwrote a $409 million a bond to the world’s largest private coal company (through one of their subsidiaries).
