ICYMI the biggest news of the week was buried in Tuesday's @StreetsblogNYC article on @NYC_DOT regulatory delays. I'm thrilled to announce I've joined the law practice of safe-streets legal legend Adam White! Please reach out for all your bike and pedestrian litigation needs.

Looks like paint is down on the E 8th St #bikeNYC lane extension from Lafayette to Avenue A.

The bull case for NYC is that it’s one of the very few places where the mere act of living in it is sufficiently intriguing to qualify as an experience. This is also why you have to tolerate tweets about bodegas and whatnot - people having *experiences* can lapse into solipsism.
Matthew Zeitlin@MattZeitlin

This is why “experiences” will get essentially infinitely expensive, they’re not making more Knicks and the number of guys with the means to do this far far far outstrips supply

@PanasonicDX4500 @FanSince09 That’s what Coke Zero is for. What is so hard to understand about the idea that people have been drinking Diet Coke for decades and like the taste.

@FanSince09 A diet version of Coke should, in theory, taste exactly like Coke, just without calories. If you think it should taste different, that's fine, but you're not actually asking for a Coke.

when Cheesecake Factory was outside he would sit politely and stare at people, waiting for them to notice him but was ignored now he follows me around the rescue and does the same thing which means I must stop and pet him every time so he knows he'll never be ignored again

@suzukisapers @NYC_DOT Yeah, DOT estimates about 70 million more bike trips in 2023 (last year with data) than in 2014. Almost a 50% increase.

@suzukisapers Not sure where you are getting that data. Based on NYPD data, @NYC_DOT reports just 298 pedestrian injuries in 2024 involving non-electric bikes and an additional 581 injures involving e-bikes, e-scooters, mopeds, and motorcycles. nyc.gov/html/dot/downl…

@suzukisapers No one is forcing pedestrians to walk next to bikes. The existing sidewalks are still there.

@BrandonWC Some roads work better with more pedestrian space, some work better with less. What I don't understand is why they are forcing pedestrians to walk next to high-speed bicycles. instead of separating the cyclists from the cars, why are we not separating the pedestrians from cyclist

@B52Returns Read the chart. The 10% of cyclists get 8% of the street. Perfectly equitable.

@BrandonWC And the 1% on bicycles get 10-30%, depending on the street. A 10:1 ratio and the most inequitable of all
