A Prince George’s PTO dad had a nice oped in @marylandmatters.org about the need for all our children to have safe ways to walk and bike to school. #SafeStreets4All #ClimateAction

Many of the students who walked to school for National Walk, Bike and Roll to School Day this month did so along perilous routes, but it doesn't have to be that way, writes Timothy Meyer, who lays out...

In the future for Cincinnati? Walkable, Bikeable, Livable City with Sustainable Transportation (transit). #SafeStreets4All #ParadigmChange #HealthyCommunities @cinradio.bsky.social
“E-cargo bikes could transform family travel, but only if boroughs back them with subsidies, secure parking, and cycle training.”

That’s why Bikeability matters — providing the skills & confidence to cycle safely for everyday journeys like the school run.
“We replaced our car with a cargo bike and have never looked back"
New research shows that families can save thousands of pounds a year by ditching their car for an electric cargo bike - but many households, particularly those living in flats, cannot make the switch.

Yes, and in the US, even with 40K people being killed in traffic crashes each year, drivers seem to keep looking for new ways to crash into people. Kids/older adults should have opportunity for safe active travel, yet elected officials don't seem to want to take action needed for #SafeStreets4All
May 10, 2026 at 10:19 AM
Yes, and need great emphasis on movement of people over cars/trucks, along with lower speeds. I cannot even get the local transportation folks out to experience the 'fun' of crossing a four lane 55 mph state highway, at an intersection between neighborhoods, without signalization. #SafeStreets4All

What if we had more kids experiencing independent mobility and independence in the US? What if we had #SafeStreets4All? There would be so many benefits for kids, parents, and the community. 'What Osaka Taught Us About Raising Independent Kids' open.substack.com/pub/kidsover...

This is safe streets advocacy today! Older adults and kids asking for safe infrastructure so they can bike to school and other destinations. Also #CargoBike caregivers and people with disabilities who also benefit from #SafeStreets4All 'When Driving is Not an Option' @nondriver.bsky.social

Media, law enforcement, elected officials, and parents need education on the difference between an E-Bike and and E-Moto. E-Moto's don't just drop from the sky, someone purchases them for kids. #SafeStreets4All #BikeEd @peopleforbikes.bsky.social @bikeleague.org @saferoutespartners.bsky.social
"The Chronicle reviewed CHP crash reports from each Bay Area county from Jan 2023 through the end of 2025 and found dozens of children have crashed on what reports describe as e-bikes. In some instances, children are getting hurt on actual electric motorcycles."

Crashes on e-bikes and illegal “e-motos” are causing alarm across the Bay Area. “They think they’re buying an e-bike when they’re not.”

#Kindermoord continues in the US as drivers of cars/trucks fail to yield right of way to life. Elected officials need to step up and create #SafeStreets4All #SafeRoads4All #Motonormativity
This morning, a driver hit and killed a 4-year-old boy in Brownsville, Brooklyn. He is the fourth child killed in New York City already this year.
March 6, 2026 at 2:56 PM
Everyday, everywhere in the US, are people driving and thinking that 5, 10, and even 36 mph over the speed limit is fine. #SafeInfrastructure #IntelligentSpeedAssist and #SafeSystemsApproach needed now. We need a #Paradigm shift from #Motonormativity to #SafeStreets4All.
Latest report is driver was going 61 miles per hour in a 25 because she didn’t want to be late for work. I doubt that going the speed limit would have taken that much more time and now someone’s child is dead. www.channel3000.com/news/police-...

Apparently we need more #Intergenerational #Learning and #Interaction. If nothing else, they could have watched the Colbert Late Show and figured this out. We have a connection since our daughter is a high school teacher. Yes, #eBikes mean freedom on two wheels. #BikeEd #SafeStreets4All

@repgreglandsman.bsky.social if you have time perhaps you could stop by Roll Hill School and check out their new bike/walk/roll skills practice facility, otherwise know as a #TrafficGarden. #TransportationLiteracy #MobilityEducation #SafeStreets4All #ActiveKids

Yes, along with 'What about that person on a bike who rolled through a stop sign? Many folks doing some excellent work trying to push back on the #eBike bikelash. @bikabout.com doing some great work in Oregon. #SafeInfrastructure #SafeStreets4All #BikeEducation #IndependentMobility

Great to see a segment focused on overcoming #Motonormativity. Seems like a good foundation to start from and keep building. Shift the #Paradigm from priority to cars, to providing children with opportunities for #IndependentMobility #Play #Independence #SafeStreets4All

Yes, and over 30 percent of the population can't, don't want to, or should not, be driving and need other options such as transit/active transportation. #ParadigmShiftNeeded #SafeStreets4All #Places4People 'When Driving is Not an Option', @nondriver.bsky.social

Cincinnati, time to integrate #eBikes into transportation models. "Our findings highlight the importance of integrating e-bikes into transportation models to accurately assess their impact on urban mobility and guide effective policy development." #SafeStreets4All #RedBike #TriStateTrails
New study from the same authors confirms promoting e-bicycle ownership replaces car trips.

“Most of the new e-bike travel is induced or replaces car usage, highlighting e-bikes’ potential to not just replace other active modes or public transport, but reduce car dependence...”

Unfortunately drivers coming out of school drop off are often some of the worst offenders. We need fewer people driving their kids to school, more #SchoolStreets #SafeStreets4All, and kids on the big yellow school bus, or walking/biking to school. #BikeBus #WalkingSchoolBus
August 15, 2025 at 1:01 PM
Yes, yes and, yes to this! Kids are future leaders. Build the foundation and then follow-up with scaffolded learning opportunities. #TransportationLiteracy #MobilityEd #BikeEd #TrafficGardens #BalanceBikes #BikeBus #WalkingSchoolBus #SchoolStreets #SafeStreets4All #ActiveKids #Social #Community

Yes, back to school time and we get to see drivers blocking crosswalks, speeding, driving distracted, crashing into school buses, just the normal back to school thing in America (that doesn't have to be). #SafeStreets4All
