Just heard SB 691 (Wiener), which calls for automatic speed warnings in cars (an alarm at 10mph over speed limit) passed out of committee and is heading to the full Assembly for a vote. Yay!
Thanks to #WalkSF and #FamiliesForSafeStreets for their organizing & advocacy
TONIGHT please stand with us to rally for real change on our streets.
This is a moment where we must be loud.
Thank you KTVU FOX2 for helping us get the word out.

Still humming this song.
Bravo to #PeoplesPublicHearing against #ODOT #Freeway expansion!

Ends with folksinger #PaulRippey (2:34:12) with an original song that needs to be sung at every highway expansion protest.

I'm heading out to lead a BikeLoudPDX ride to #WDoR2022. World Day of Remembrance for Road for victims of traffic violence.
Event is Sun Nov 20 1pm at 122nd & Powell, put on by a coalition of groups supporting #FamiliesForSafeStreets.
There've been 129 deaths by #TrafficViolence in Portland in the past 2 years.
In the past 24 hours, Police reports were filed on 26 "Accidents" including six Road "Injuries" and five "Hit & Runs".
Our streets are failing us.
