The superheroes our cities need 🦸 “…the @ThePeoplesCDOT has emerged as a proactive movement to ensure safer streets for 🚲🚶♀️ …” “@CrosswalksLA paint DIY crosswalks on busy intersections in order to ensure 🚶♀️ safety…” thedailybeast.com/meet-the-guerr… @thedailybeast @TonyHoWasHere
If we could build bike lanes they'd be protected like this 👇
"The People’s CDOT, what they’re doing is more than just mere vigilante activism, it’s addressing a profound failure by a society that prioritizes cars over people. It’s doubling down on radical safety measures in communities that desperately need it."

NEW: Cars are killing pedestrians and cyclists at a historic rate. Activists like @ThePeoplesCDOT and @CrosswalksLA install guerrilla street infrastructure like speed bumps and crosswalks to fight back. I got a chance to watch them work for my latest. thedailybeast.com/meet-the-guerr…
Our biggest fan 😍 Sorry but we still won't unblock you, you and your followers are annoying.
After all our near misses with aggressive drivers this week, I bought some traffic calming devices for playtime on our block. So far it’s helping a lot. A lot of drivers are slowing down.

The fact that a massive red STOP sign requires another larger red and fluorescent yellow sign directly on top of it really sums up the amount of attention drivers pay on our roads. We've added tigertails,flashing lights made them bigger etc.. something tells me it's not the signs

“Everything is hostile to pedestrians, from the use of beg buttons to countdown clocks that last only long enough for able-bodied adults to cross. Cars are the number one killer of kids in Los Angeles and it’s not hard to see why,” @CrosswalksLA told me. thedailybeast.com/meet-the-guerr…

I can't believe I have to go to a(nother) public meeting tomorrow night to lobby for 0.6 miles of protected bike lane. There are 4,500 miles of streets in Chicago. We want 10% (450 miles) of them to be safe for bicyclists. If 0.6 miles = 1 meeting, 450 miles = 750 meetings. ugh
@AldLawson If you are concerned with community safety, why did you dismantle pedestrian safety measures taken by the community this past weekend? x.com/streetsblogchi…

Does Portland have an organization like this or @ThePeoplesCDOT? If not, let’s create one!
Activist group @CrosswalksLA has been painting DIY crosswalks since LADOT refused to do so for years. LADOT has even gone as far as removing these DIY crosswalks in parts of the city.

Bollards work. Like they really, really work. The whole store would've otherwise exploded. Put 'em everywhere.
Yikes! I have seen a lot of crashes but this might be the worst damage I’ve seen to a vehicle. One vehicle split in half length-wise closing SB Pulaski at 59th St. No word yet on the severity of injuries. Sometimes “at a high rate of speed” doesn’t quite cover it.
the irony, thanks in large part to our media ecosystem, that people fear leaving their homes because they think they'll be randomly victimized and harmed by a person...when in reality you're just far more likely to be killed by a car
New report finds that over 8,000 pedestrians were killed on US roadways in 2022. Jimmy Carter was president the last time that happened. ghsa.org/resources/Pede…
