#CarDependence cause #CrashesArentAccidents: Why did more than 500 #cyclists, family and close friends gather on the following cloudy Saturday morning to honor the #passing of #LesterLegarda? Because Lester was #struck at a speed that made survival from the collision nearly impossible.

"..for many low-income and minority Americans, #automobiles have been turbo-boosted engines of #inequality, immobilizing their owners with #debt, increasing their exposure to hostile law enforcement, and in general accelerating the forces that drive apart haves and have-nots. "

On 25 June 2019 I filmed the morning "rush" hour at the toucan crossing at Ormeau Bridge, #Belfast. In 9 minutes 70 cyclists went by. This represents 19% of all traffic, excluding pedestrians. The car traffic is slow moving, and the road is considered by some metrics one of the most congested outside London.

The Department for Infrastructure have no plans to create #SafeSpaceForCycling here.
