More public transit "bridge funding" so they can continue to run terrible service through 2025.
Maybe use that funding to improve service so fares can be your "bridge funding"

Thanks @Scott_Wiener for joining us in fight to avoid 2025 fiscal cliff and save Bay Area transit from deep service cuts

NEW 🏘️ STORY: Remember the Monster in the Mission? A nearby 11-story tower with nearly 200 “micro” units – studios with shared kitchens – might have become Monster 2.0. Instead, it got approval last month, and a round of applause to boot /1

Like back when sofar was donation based. A week before they'd give you the neighborhood and the day before they'd give you the address. Now it's $34 for a show that you have no idea who's playing. Who goes to these?

Wow. Larkin Poe headlining the Fillmore tomorrow reminds me of when Sofar Sounds was cool and I saw them in someone's fancy ass apartment.

FUCK YES. The concept that you should be oh so lucky to play an industry circle jerk that generates millions of dollars for the wealthy and get pennies for the privilege is fucking bullshit. SXSW should pay all their artists as generously as they pay themselves.

Not only are these people clueless about e-bikes but they seem to think every delivery is at the top of Twin Peaks.

Why is such a large percentage of food delivery in New York City brought by bike, and yet such a tiny percentage in San Francisco? Why doesn't SF have as vibrant a bike-delivery ecosystem?
The amount of responses to this thread from people that either don't know what an e-bike is or think they can't go up hill is absolutely mind boggling.

And there you have it. Plate covers to avoid being caught running red lights and also avoiding tolls. No surprise they also give El*n $8/month.

Replying to @MikeChenSF
SFMTA is a corrupt organization. Their red light camera program frequently issues erroneous tickets. In my neighborhood they have been caught ticketing cars up to 20 minutes before street cleaning. I now have a plastic cover over my plate to prevent the plate from being read.

The lady in the front of the car got $50,000 to block 100% low income housing in Livermore.
The guy in the back of the car killed a homeless housing proposal in Japantown

Love the irony of this DO NOT BLOCK DRIVEWAY sign along with the van completely blocking the sidewalk. When will start enforcing this illegal parking?

If you feel safe and confident cycling on a busy road without protected bike lanes, good for you.
It’s not about you.

In the next few weeks, @SFMTA_Muni and @sfpublicworks will be doing spot treatments on Folsom to fix potholes in the Folsom bike lane. They will also restripe the sharrows along 10th Street.Show this thread

Reporter is reviewing the 2022 "bicycling on sidewalk" tickets written by the NYPD. There were 413 such tickets with race identified; 346 tickets (or 84%) went to Blacks or Hispanics, who are just 50% of the population. Story to follow:

It seems the solution to crime in SF is to ban cars. Union Square looting? Ban cars. Mission prostitution? Ban cars.

This is why day lighting is so important!

Today, we introduced AB 413 to institute daylighting to improve public safety. CA’s pedestrian fatality rate is more than 25% higher than the national average. Daylighting is an important measure that increases visibility of pedestrians & bicyclists at crosswalks & intersections

Stuck in the 90's? So is the Market Street Subway system in #SanFrancisco! It still runs on 5 1/4 inch floppy disks. 🤯 , the @SFMTA_Muni Director, says the city is ripe for a #transit fiasco like we just experienced with . #OutdatedTechnology #safety

how about we get rid of both signs and install concrete filters and diverters instead? 😌🤭

Seven years ago today, Berkeley witnessed a devastating demonstration of what can happen when bike safety plans are delayed.
On this day, Meg Schwarzman, a new mom, was run over by a car, suffered horrendous injuries, and was assumed dead. 🧵

The city could fix this in a week. SFMTA & the mayor would rather push vulnerable road users into traffic than show the slightest amount of leadership, so Valencia is without a bike lane during commute hours.

There was no emergency. , Jonathan Baxter, LIED and has since deleted the offending tweet…but only after I’ve been doxxed and endlessly harassed. Here are the cold hard facts about the incident:

Dangggg. SFFDPIO lying to the public. Previous call was 30 minutes earlier half a mile away.
Quote Tweet
Thank you for sharing this. The crews did not say they “were on a break”, they were finishing a medical emergency with a patient care document from a call at that location which is why they moved to the other side of the street rather than engage with you. Have a safe day. twitter.com/drivingmzstace…
Atlanta will use this funding to build 1 pedestrian bridge so drivers don't have to wait for people to cross the street.
Quote Tweet
Atlanta is getting $30 million for safe streets projects.
$20 million for street trees, raised medians, other good stuff on 122nd Ave. -- one of Portland's most dangerous streets
@USDOT is like "you get safety funding, you get safety funding..." You love to see it.

Love this streetview from the SF Standard article showing how people park in this part of Potrero Hill. Flex posts clearly aren't enough to make crosswalks for people to cross the street.

88% of major incidents from happen on streets with public transportation. Just like Tesla, it's part of their business plan to slow public transportation.

Horrific. No surprise, of course, that it was a grossly overpowered Dodge Challenger (not an SUV), when Dodge's marketing glorifies dangerous driving. The tech exists to limits speeds in urban settings – implement it.
