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.
Yes, we need #SafeSystemsApproach enacted, with #IntelligentSpeedAssist and #AutomaticEmergncyBraking. Habitual offenders laws need to be passed/enforced. #SpeedKills
Yes, and design safer infrastructure, while educating children and adults on how to navigate the transportation system. There is a significant lack of #TransportationLiteracy in the US. Like one and done on drivers test while traffic laws change every year. #SafeSystemsApproach
What will it take for Cincinnati to achieve zero traffic crash related deaths? Helsinki, Finland, has achieved this goal. I guess you need to care more about life than the movement of cars/trucks. #Places4People #SafeStreets4All #SafeSystemsApproach 'Killed by a Traffic Engineer', Wes Marshall
A person driving a #DangerousByDesign vehicle crashed into an restaurant full of people. Why are drivers going out of their way to crash into things? No agency assigned in headline by news agency. #AutomaticEmergencyBraking #SafeSystemsApproach #Bollards needed
Yes, we need #MultiModalCitizens, multiple transportation options, safe infrastructure for active transportation, #SafeSystemsApproach in policy, and #TransportationLiteracy #MobilityEducation in PreK-12. #Walk #Bike #Transit #Train #3C&DCorridor #IndependentMobility4Kids
So at the same time that driving is making Americans unhappy they are crashing into kids, people biking/walking, and other people in cars/trucks, at an alarming rate causing record number of fatalities. #StopKillingKids #SafeStreets4All #SafeSystemsApproach
'Kindermoord' continues unobstructed in the US as a result of dangerous streets and some drivers of lethal vehicles exercising their 'freedumb'. #SafeInstructureDesign #IntelligentSpeedAssist and #AuomaticEmergencyBraking now. #SafeSystemsApproach #SafeStreets4All
Meanwhile, Carmel, IN, has over 150 roundabouts, and Butler County, OH, has over 40 roundabouts. #SafeInfrastructure #SafeStreets4All #SafeSystemsApproach #RhondaLovesRoundabouts www.amazon.com/Ronda-Loves-...
Preventive might work better than punitive, as the children might still be alive? #SafeSystemsApproach in overcoming #Motonormativity? The US and Canada should require vehicles be equipped with #AutomaticEmergencyBraking and #IntellligentSpeedAssist
'Kindermoord' continues in America thanks to #Motornormativity #CarCultureBias, and elected officials who fail to take necessary action to protect people using our transportation network. #SafeSystemsApproach #SafeStreets4All
American 'Kindermoord' in and around school drop off areas. Value kids lives over movement of cars/SUVs/trucks. We need #SchoolStreets #BikeBus #WalkingSchoolBus #SafeStreets4All No #DangerousByDesign vehicles on the road #SafeSystemsApproach
Yes, and we can use safe separated infrastructure, complete streets design, lower speed limits, to help change perception and provide safe spaces for all transportation modes to operate. But can we get elected officials to take action? #SafeSystemsApproach
Yes, #SafeSystemsApproach requires and all above approach, starting with changing the way our infrastructure is designed, engineering in traffic safety, focusing on changing #Motornormativity #CarCultureBias, and educating students how to navigate the transportation network using all modes safely.
The #NTSB has done some great work investigating traffic crashes. They have made safety recommendations to #NHTSA. It is up to congress, along with federal, state, and local transportation agencies to enact the recommendations. @jenniferhomendy.bsky.social #SafeSystemsApproach #SafeStreets4All
Yes, many more of us 'multi-modal citizens' (thanks @brenttoderian.bsky.social) than 'avid cyclists'. Safe infrastructure and a #SafeSystemsApproach to make the transportation network safe for all transportation modes.
To me it is all about where we emphasize priority, traffic enforcement, and education, are only a part of the solution. We need a #SafeSystemsApproach, prioritizing safe infrastructure design, #IntelligentSpeedAssist #AutomaticEmergencyBraking, safer vehicle design, and less VMT.
A pedestrian button was still broken days after a fatal crash on University Drive that killed James Carter and his service dog, Austin, on Christmas Day.

The VRUSA has five components:
1. Overview of VRU Safety Performance
2. Summary of Quantitative Analysis
3. Summary of Consultation
4. Program of Projects or Strategies
5. #SafeSystemsApproach (2/5)
As @PBOTinfo grapples with a spike in alcohol-related fatalities, we look at how their 'safe system' approach could help #drunkdriving #safesystemsapproach #visionzero
