It is however a decent anecdotal example of why feels often trump reals when it comes to encouraging transit usage.

Since the source is NYPD I would assume it means strictly in the stations or on the trains, as the sidewalks above are not MTA property.

Yes 500 is about the average number of rides that an NYC subway commuter takes per year. Since all the other stats are also per year.

IMO statistics should always be a requisite factor in any deliberation or executive order that would mobilize law enforcement or military, and lying about those statics in that capacity should be a serious crime.

So you mean android-compatible devices with a supported method for unlocking? Because you can also jailbreak most locked bootloaders through unsupported means.

I wasn’t actually aware that OnePlus have a supported route and that they were the only other brand who do. I jailbroke my own OnePlus :P

Do you mean android-compatible? Because there are a lot of android-compatible device manufacturers with unlockable bootloaders outside of Google themselves. Like the OnePlus I’m currently using.

I think they had written something to the effect of where they live, zebra stripes ensure that drivers give way to pedestrians. But that might have been a rhetorical mistake on their part because I see they’ve edited the comment since then to say that pedestrians can only cross at zebra stripes.

Painted lines?

Same. They’re wonderful for auto throughput and auto safety, that’s about it. They don’t save much if any space over traditional intersections (Really their space and shape requirements make them fairly prohibitive in any place that isn’t already dominated exclusively by motor infrastructure), they create a lot more travel distance for pedestrians and cyclists who have to go around the outside, and they generally don’t have any signals for cars to stop for pedestrians and cyclists crossing as they make their way around that long orbit. They’re about as effective a solution to our car-centric society as the electric car.

And yet it doesn’t seem to matter when it comes to cars if an area is spoken for, centuries-old or not. 2000-year old roman road? Pave the fucker, paint lines, forget sidewalks.

That’s the thing, this is seen as prioritizing bikes, yet the cars still have at least twice as much road space as the bikes despite visibly moving fewer people. The result is that the cyclists are made to feel like they’re in a motorist traffic jam. And if a street wants to accommodate cars at all, they have to give up that much width because cars are so big.

The fish needs a bike?

This kind of situation is probably not that rare. I know a guy who got rear ended at a red light by a minivan while on his bike. Broke both of his legs. While he’s howling in pain on the ground the woman who hit him gets out, stands over him for a second, gets back in the car, and drives away leaving him there to wait for other aid. She never got caught. He guessed that she got out to help, saw how badly she had maimed him, and decided to flee instead.

Jay-Z ironically living in maybe the most walkable city in the country.

It’s as if they’re reflexively doing some sort of magical incantation to absolve themselves of logical inconsistency.

Dangerous drivers come in all age brackets. A skills-based license should expire in 5-10 years for everyone and require mandatory testing to renew. None of this ageist debate.

Smells like the cops strongarming the public for funding increases. It’d be better for the railway to just hire bike concierge.

Literally every full-CBD infrastructure project is complicated. And compared to things like highways, subway stations, anti-terror infrastructure, etc… Pedestrianization really is the low-hanging complicated fruit. Large cities have small armies of infrastructure professionals ready to tackle the complications if we only just let them. The hardest part of pedestrianization is protecting the political will to let them at it long enough to actually get it done.

Log off, go for a bike ride.
