What we're talking about this week in my Complete, Safe, Equitable Streets course:
1. The legal frameworks that should guarantee #SafeStreetsForAll...and why they fail,
2. The 4 types of cyclists, and
3. The* downsides* of many well-meaning "safety" campaigns, including this one: https://www.fox5dc.com/news/make-eye-contact-with-drivers-before-crossing-the-street-pedestrian-safety-vienna-eye-to-eye
@DrTCombs Do you have thoughts about cultural differences re "making eye contact"? (gender-related too)
@DrTCombs Good! Cuz I was brushed off when I voiced these issues in context of "shared" streets (the US versions). I was resisting the opinion that we *should* do it here bc it worked in the NL. 🤨
