@soundfreak @nyc_evsa @ShaunAbreu @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC They keep data on severe harm and deaths to pedestrians. And changes like the ones that will happen on West 72 Street reduce both - something that at least I believe is a good thing.

@HowardYaruss @nyc_evsa @ShaunAbreu @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC NYPD doesn't keep data on e-bike accidents

tap and read and learn Shaun Abreu DOT Central Park @ShaunAbreu @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC You are AGEIST, ABLEIST and Trumpy.

@nyc_evsa @ShaunAbreu @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC I have no data. The data I referenced is the NYPD's data.

@HowardYaruss @ShaunAbreu @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC You know nothing about victims of e-vehicle violence.There are more bike lanes than ever before and the ER stats overwhelmingly prove that there are exponentially more e vehicle crashes as all the time.Your “ data” is fluff and lies. What is our goal? To save lives! We aint paid!

@nyc_evsa @OpenPlans Ignoring safety and making personal attacks is a losing strategy. I am really curious what your real motivation is. I suspect it is free parking.

@OpenPlans @HowardYaruss There is nothing about a bike lane that makes an e biker STOP at a red light, not speed,not ride on auto-pilot!The majority do not believe your lies. How GREAT that W.72nd st bike lane is on hold. Our voices will soon drown out your money ‘ Cause That’s What Democracy Looks Like!

“The data shows that bike lanes make streets safer and more accessible for everyone who uses them... Safety upgrades like the one planned for West 72nd Street are not radical or untested. They are routine, basic infrastructure, and this one is long overdue.”

@BasicallySusan @AFineBlogger @SpeakerMenin @nyccommonsense @BobHoldenNYC @infopobn @GaleBrewerNYC @NoMoreBikeLanes @CycleSafe18 This lawsuit asks the court to (1) stop the DOT from doing its job to make the streets safer for all, including the disabled, (2) thwart the will of the community, and (3) hand each plaintiff $225,000 in the process. It will fail.

@infopobn This lawsuit asks the court to (1) stop the DOT from doing its job to make the streets safer for all, including the disabled, (2) thwart the will of the community, and (3) hand each plaintiff $225,000 in the process. It seems that shame has disappeared from our society.

Lawsuit filed 7/11 by W 72nd St residents w/disabilities. it argues it will discriminate against disabled and elderly residents by making the street harder to navigate AND another ADA DOT lawsuit : amny.com/news/lawsuit-a… DOT BS HARMS ELDERS & DISABLED ilovetheupperwestside.com/a-judge-just-p…

@queens_parents @NYCCouncil There are already strict laws for the conduct of ebikes. It is not the job of the @NYCCouncil to enforce them. It is the job of the @NYPD to enforce them.

Mind-boggling the lack of any action by @NYCCouncil over human beings being struck on almost a daily basis by e-bikes.

@queens_parents There is no free lunch here. If Jack is not paying for the ever-soaring costs of maintaining his apartment, someone is.

If Jack lives in your building, but your rent went up 8%, I’d be pretty pissed.

@Megmd514 @AutonomusRepost Check the NYPD crash data.

Zero data to back that up. I watched that fake “ hearing” in disgust - a packed audience of activists from Howard’s group and their other paid entities preventing actual members of the community from even getting in the room to speak. A complete scam. The entire CB 7 should be investigated for conflict of interest.

Disabled NYC residents sue to block West Side bike lane that would force them to cross fast-moving cyclist traffic to reach taxis and buses—but the bike lobby claims the redesign actually *helps* accessibility. Hard… #NYC #BikeMandate #ADA #Accessibility nypost.com/2026/07/15/us-…

@MarkLevineNYC Remove parking minimums.

Rents in NYC have just hit an all-time high. Median market rate in June… Manhattan: $5,295/mo (+8.2% year-over-year) Brooklyn: $4,350 (+8.1%) NYC’s housing affordability crisis is at DefCon 1. We need to push harder on every front to address our housing shortage. Update zoning, invest more City $ in affordable units, lower the time & cost City bureaucracy imposes on construction, get 1000s of vacant regulated units back on the market. We need bold action. This is a crisis.

@LincolnRestler When a patient has a fever, the answer is not to throw away the thermometer - it's to cure the disease. In this case, the answer is to provide better primary education in poorer areas and free SHSAT prep. I prefer to lift up low performing students than push down standards.

1 in 5 NYC public school students are Black, but at Stuy - our most prestigious high school - 3 of ~800 incoming Freshmen are Black. We urgently need state legislation to modify the admissions process. A single test should never be only factor deciding who gets in & who doesn’t.

@EricsRambles @NYPDnews @NYPDPC @Evsa @AndrewFine How could the government license something that is totally illegal?

@HowardYaruss @NYPDnews @NYPDPC @Evsa @AndrewFine Licensing and enforcement.

Crazy that this "e-bike" with speeds up to 43mph requires no license/registration/helmet and is openly parked in a sidewalk bike rack. @nypdnews @NYPDPC @evsa @andrewfine

@Megmd514 The are not low IQ, they are admitting that restaurant owners know more about restaurants than they do. And restaurant owners believe there is year round interest in eating outside.

Are these people that low iq? NYC gets inclement weather ( rain/ snow/ extreme cold) 9 months out of the year. That’s why ppl don’t use the typhoid sheds.

@nyc_evsa @LincolnRestler @crystalforbk @CMCrystalHudson Do you really think New Yorkers like streets with piles of leaking garbage, gorging rats and putrid smells?

@LincolnRestler @crystalforbk @CMCrystalHudson All about getting rid of parking! STOP the lies!This is all Trans Alt corruption. Nobody wants these hideous garbage bins. You are a phony and your special interest agenda is glaringly obvious! Follow the money!

We’re eliminating sidewalk trash piles stacked taller than us! If you’re in Brooklyn’s Community District 2 – includes Downtown BK, BK Heights, Boerum Hill, DUMBO, Fort Greene & Clinton Hill – learn about the stationary, on-street trash bins and enroll at nyc.gov/empirebins

@0kCorker @enforcelawsNYC Rideshares are not exempt.

@HowardYaruss @enforcelawsNYC It’s a tax that has not reduced congestion since the primary cause are the infinite rideshares which are exempt

“On the ground, we are not seeing a 60 -to 90-second reduction, especially when, for the past, you know, two years, our response time is creeping up every day,”  said Michael Greco, president of Local 2507 representing FDNY’s EMT’s.

@iLoveTheUWS Fantastic. I am tired of sharing the street with piles of leaking garbage, gorging rats and putrid smells, none of which should exist in the richest city in the world. The changes cannot come fast enough.

City Plan Would Convert Up to 1,460 Upper West Side Parking Spaces Into Trash Bin Sites — the Highest Share of Any NYC Neighborhood tinyurl.com/ekev8wdp

@enforcelawsNYC 50% correct. It is not a tax, it is a usage fee. And it has reduced congestion. It is, however, manufactured and it is a zone.
