Flipside, there's quite a lot the supply side could do to reduce road accidents as well.
The #NollVision for motorists in their airbagged, ABS'd, 4wd, two ton tanks makes life slower, less convenient, and less safe for anyone not in such a tank. Result? More tanks.
Sweden has no cycle culture to speak of, #motonormativity gets baked in from age 15 when kids can start driving, and traffic planning in some kommuner has yet to move on from 'predict and provide'.

Poverino, allunghiamogli qualche soldino per comprare degli auricolari oppure un sistema per telefonare senza usare le mani. Avrà speso tutti i risparmi nell'acquisto del veicolo.

FFS! Car brained narrator fucking spoilt the segment on the build of these cargo bikes by mentioning they don't come with airbags with the fitted seat belts. It's not a fucking high speed car you #motonormativity twat!!

"respondents dramatically underestimated public support for non-motorised transport relative to their own, a pluralistic ignorance effect likely reflecting another facet of motonormativity"

Media reports of collisions both reflect and shape public understanding of road safety. This paper analyses 204 Swiss newspaper articles reporting collisions between car drivers and cyclists. Our analysis shows that these reports reproduce discursive biases rooted in motonormativity.

Blaming Cyclists, Invisibilising Drivers: How Motonormativity Shapes Swiss Media Collision Reports | Published in Findings

By Lucca Reymond, Patrick Rérat. In Swiss media reports on collisions between cyclists and motorists, cyclists tend to be foregrounded, while motorists are often rendered invisible. Such reporting implicitly blames cyclists and reinforces motonormativity.

Got a medical condition that means you can't drive? Guess what: you won't be able to ride a fucking bicycle either thanks to the LNP.

Like a nice ride through the park? Nope, the LNP wants you on the busy road instead. What's that, almost all of Brisbane's bicycle infrastructure are footpaths and shared paths, not dedicated bike lanes? Well you're de facto banned from all of it.

E-bike and e-scooter riders to require a licence in Qld under proposed laws

A raft of new rules around the use of e-mobility devices will be ushered in after the Queensland government accepted the recommendations from a parliamentary inquiry.
