9 cars per minute "#SafeRoutesToSchool", this was after it settled down a little. #SpeedHumps are useless at #TrafficCalming #PaintIsNotProtection #FuckCars our #trafficEngineers have no idea how to make safe streets π #DefundDOTs #BanSUVs and these people picking up kids with their #TruckLoadOfInsecurities, but if you can't swing that, just put some #StuffInTheStreet

Me, on a bike, on ODOT #stroads, with a couple dashed stripes of paint.

#drivers who have not read the manual
+ #trafficEngineers who don't get it
= #Vision60or70Something and an endless supply of soul-crushing traffic
#VisionZero means designing and operating streets for actual safety, using physical obstacles, not by wishing drivers would follow rules and worn-off paint. #PaintIsNotProtection

@ayo Iβll bet there are roads like that going from Durham into Chapel Hill here in NC (US). #PaintIsNotProtection #InfrastructureMatters

What do you call this pointy lane-narrowing paint job? #BikeTooter #transportation #tacticalUrbanism (spotted in Hawaii) I like it. #PaintIsNotProtection, so it might as well be threatening to #drivers π€· .

Wandered past #Edinburghβs newest #cycling βinfrastructureβ, of course there was a car blocking it, and a whole lot more rat-running down Leven Terrace to skip Tollcross junction. #paintIsNotProtection

Reminder that while we're trying to "plan" and "fund" bike and bus lanes, that drivers continue to casually destroy our chances at a livable planet because there's like ten complete car networks (and endless debt to maintain them), "free" #parking, and not a single compelling bike or bus option. (#PaintIsNotProtection, 4x/hr is not "frequent")

Always try to stay within the bike lane just as carefully as it has been painted and maintained.

Green for pedestrian walkways here. And yes, in a few places cars were parked in the pedestrian lane. #PaintIsNotProtection but at least this is more accessible than not having them.
Oh, this is nice and shiny new. NB: #paintisnotprotection so we gotta #freethecyclelanes
