North American cities rarely make the list of the world’s best biking cities. So what can we do better?

It’s not about Topography or Climate. It’s about Infrastructure and Accessible Bicycle Resources.

👀Can you spot what’s wrong, wrong, wrong here?🥵Another tragedy, another fatality...Read the report: patch.com/new-jersey/longbranch/tinton-falls-teen-hits-bicyclist-remains-scene-no-charges-filed🥵The “teen” is not held responsible because he “stayed at the scene”, and “It appears to be an accident”.🥵Crash reporting almost always absolves the driver. And never mentions the conditions of the crash, which are truly to blame. #crashnotaccident This, and almost every other CRASH is preventable. 🥵The driver cannot always be to blame. Our city leaders allow dangerous road design that prioritizes drivers over all other road users. 🥵Cities don’t address lack of adequate street lighting, and insufficient bicycling and walking infrastructure. 🥵Traffic engineers and city leaders ignore the needs of the % of people in every community who do not or cannot drive.🙌It doesn’t have to be this way. Join the movement. Email: apcompletestreets@gmail.comOr message us. #asburyparkcompletestreetscoalition #trafficviolence #roadfatalities ... See MoreSee Less
