Pickup truck unlicensed driver Karla Guadalupe Armendariz, 25, was charged following Monday night's hit-and-run collision on Old Hickory Boulevard near Firestone Parkway near Nashville TN wherein she killed scooter operator Charles Fountain, 65.

Next: Point Roberts, WA * will request Gaza level humanitarian aid and may regain fame that preciously peaked when Kaiser Wilhelm Ist of Germany ruled the border. * notable exclave of de minimus duty free shopping and regulatory pragmatism, pre 9-11 and US Patriot Act controls.

With fluctuating temps road hazards can appear almost out of nowhere. While cities have some protection against the sudden onset of potholes, they can also be on the hook when hazards cause injury to cyclists. Read our guide on how to navigate these claims: www.thebikinglawyer.ca/post/road-di...

Can you can put stickers or flair on the Discord, too ? 🚴👩‍🦼⛷️🏃✒️💳

Yes, 2025.march.04 Compare this to the reference video: how it was in 2023 with many cars on the lawn, all the time.

New trees and #flexposts on #VernonBlvd south of 38th St in LIC Queens are not surviving the winter. Also, they cannot survive turning trucks.

The Queensboro Bridge Greenway #bikeNYC by Queensbridge lawn remains free of parked cars at night. A long-fought victory. March 2015.

Tautological studies used as • placebos • make work programs • gravy trains • stalling tactics Before actual engineering and design studies, how many years of community justice surveys, outreach projects before confirming that running trains on rail right-of-way is a good idea ?

A hot #publicChoice take (by James Madison and others) is that federal facilities should be located in a demilitarized sandbox; moving facilities and employees out into particular states creates conflicts of interest.

Noting #narrow #bikelanes -- you know they are narrow when, in the rolling photo op, shoulders, elbows, handlebar ends, etc protrude beyond the lane. #HowWideIsIt @bikinginla.bsky.social bikinginla.com/2025/03/04/g...

Some say wheels are symmetrical. If in doubt, I can correct upside down wheels for a reasonable fee.

Daylighting corners (leaving corners free of opaque fixed obstacles) makes for safer turns. Nobody need be squeezed by a bus.

Customers will stop buying gasoline if they die in a car crash. Children will never grow up to buy cars and gasoline if they die in a road accident. -- with concern, ExxonMobil

The Green Democrat coalition that removed tolls on Vancouver BC toll bridges ~2017 might like you to forget their role in reviving congestion. Also their role in raiding transit funds to pay for "toll-backed" bridge construction.

Thinking of softer attenuating attenuators than concrete sugarcubes and granite slabs. Motorists' cars with bumpers, crumple zones and airbags get springy steel rails or sand in a rubber bucket; cyclists often get hard sharp cornered slabs. #hazard An explainer for @queens_parents who blocks me.

Last year, the Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology introduced the 'Infuuts', a special bike for children attached to tubes and IVs. Due to all reactions the bicycle is now produced on a larger scale for use by other hospitals at home and abroad. 👌🏼 🚲 🥰 @themaximacenter.bsky.social

McMansion-style single interior stairways lead to great space.

Non MUTCD signage on 39th Ave bike boulevard in Sunnyside.

Thousands of volunteers' hours from Amish --> dozens of completed homes. Thousands of volunteer hours in a vetocracy* --> concepts of a plan (maybe) * "vetocracy" concept introduced in Political Order and Political Decay, Francis Fukuyama (2014). Pic: Alexandra Fasulo, Amish barn enjoyer.

For fans of street sweeping. Note some narrow parts of 34th Ave #bikelane in Jackson Heights (in 80s streets) still have compacted snow and ice.

#Daylighting so that street users and pedestrians at crosswalk can see each other must not be overcome by carts, tents, #icecream delivery services, dense shrubbery,... Seen on 34thAve Queens

One way to further concoct a foreign influence scandal is to declare your own citizens to be foreigners.

Off peak commute is good. #LIRR from Queens Broadway.

Deliveries completed, Midtown.

Berlin 1989 is good enough for government work.

How do you know if an EV is idling ? #cyberbullyNeverIdles

The #snow_emergency = no on-street #parking rule of New Hampshire in effect. #Shoup

In the Netherlands, roundabouts are designed to keep cyclists safe by giving them priority over cars, clear visibility, and dedicated space. Unlike traditional intersections, they slow down motor traffic, reduce conflict points, and ensure a smooth flow for all users. WATCH: www.youtube.com/watc...

#Greenwave of synchronization on First Ave Manhattan. Would be a longer #bikeNYC wave in most conditions; this clunky cold Citibike on frozen slush is near worst-case. "I am content creator".

HOPE VI as a crime Dissipation or as Dispersion, Diffusion, and Distribution ? Projects such as Cabrini-Green, Robert Taylor (Chicago) or Techwood, Clark Howell (Atlanta) make interesting before/after heat map studies in a post-containment era.

Crosswalk at the Brattleboro food coop though

Delightful retail density experience. Not like Trader Joe's.

Has California tried anything tough on crime since the Pete Wilson Prop 187 days ? openyls.law.yale.edu/bitstream/ha...

#bikeNCY's #Babyplow in action on First Ave. Good for 3 to 6 inches of snow; not so great scrubbing final 15 mm of slush -- for which power bristle brushes (used by midtown landlords on their sidewalk setbacks) can be better. 1/3

So much glass and symmetry, could quality as modernist.

Research by #DOGE celebrates efficiency and publicizes a large indoor cycling facility that to-date has escaped Strava GPS-powered segment tracking.

More than 2,200 #bikeNYC use the Manhattan Bridge bike path on a snowy February day. #openData

Excellent evening for wood snake rides. Or bike rides.
