We appreciate Councilmember Hahn acknowledging yesterday’s tragic pedestrian fatality on Rose Street. However, she has not shown a commitment to safe streets. She was the ONLY councilmember that did not support Measure FF, which is designed to help prevent such collisions. 🧵 - ThreadSky

Why do leftists think cars can stop on a dime.

tboggia.bsky.social•101 days ago

why do theamericanists put two spaces between "a" and "dime"?

Why do you use drugs.

They can't stop on a dime. That why we should slow them down. If infrastructure is put in to slow cars down, drivers are more likely to stop for pedestrians. Less damage is caused too if they do hit someone.

Not with a speed camera. Try a speed Bump they work pretty good.

I think @walkbikeberk.bsky.social would be very happy if there were more speed bumps. You seem to be fighting with the wrong people.

I don't fight with people. I tell them the truth and then sit and laugh when they don't believe me. They won't do anything. Nobody gets paid off for speed bumps. Like they do with speed cameras.

The FF campaign even highlighted increased, unsafe speeds on Rose after it was repaved without safety improvements last year.

If the City had added traffic calming features recommended in the bike plan, it could have prevented or reduced the severity of this collision. 😞

Thankfully Berkeley voters are more committed to safe streets than CM Hahn, passing Measure FF by a wide margin and voting down EE, which would have provided far fewer safety improvements.

We mourn the death of this community member and hope it bolsters the City’s resolve to build safer streets that help eliminate severe and fatal collisions. #VisionZero
