DDOT continues to publish before/after analyses of safety projects. The numbers for the 9th street NW bike lanes suggest that we should be doing these projects everywhere we can. Crashes plummeted, pedestrian and bike traffic skyrocketed, and vehicle travel times dropped.

Very sad to hear this. Mayor Rusk was there commenting on B&RU when we had maybe 5 other people doing so because the teams we covered were having nightmarish seasons. His love for the sport and the stories he shared with that community were remarkable.
The District Press staff was sorry to learn today that longtime commenter (and former mayor of Albuquerque) David Rusk has passed away. He was a valued and supportive member of our community for many years, and our thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

This one is tough. David was so kind and always very generous with his time. Unfailing love and support for DC soccer teams. Had stories for days and a unique perspective a lot of us are going to miss.

Barbra is one of the many talented women in this league. But, she doesn't have to have talent for us to stand with her and say she does not deserve any of the hatred she receives on a regular basis. She deserves respect. I stand with her and ride for her in any weather.

It has boggled my mind since I was sixteen that the moral hazard of driving does not weigh on literally everyone all the time.
I hate it! I don't want to risk ruining or ending someone's life just to get to the damn grocery store, but where I live, I have to, every day.

You can be the safest, most attentive driver in the world and still pose a massive risk to other road users. That’s because cars and car dependency are inherently dangerous.
This doesn’t mean you’re a bad person if you drive, but I do think that drivers should acknowledge their role in this system.

Also just a friendly PSA that you are under no obligation to watch videos of horrific or gruesome events just because they appear in your feed. Sharing this because I'm familiar with the feeling of watching something without really thinking about it and then immediately regretting it.

Off the dome: split base of whiskey and tequila (or maybe mezcal?), jalepeño and aromatic bitters, black pepper simple syrup, stirred and served over a big rock. Garnish with orange and lime wheels (because it’s a truck, get it??)

Whenever I bike (or, on occasion, drive) on neighborhood streets, I stick to 15 mph.
When you're going that speed, it's *amazingly* easy to stop should anything unexpected happen,
This might be:
-A driver pulling out of a driveway
-A bicyclist doing a u-turn
-A kid stepping out from behind a car

me to the united states: this could be us but you playin’
A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵
