"We're going in the wrong direction," said DC Auditor Kathy Patterson on the city's vision zero policy. Traffic deaths have risen in DC — save for in 2019 — since the policy was implemented, and despite the target of no deaths by 2024. @JWPascale dcist.com/story/21/09/22…

We’ve been paying attention, and we won’t stop. And it happened *because* vehicle miles traveled fell—and when there were no longer traffic jams to slow down the drivers who remained, most of our communities failed to slow anyone down in other ways.
Even though Americans drove 13% fewer miles in 2020, the number of U.S. traffic deaths rose by 7.2% (This is a stunning public health issue that has gotten almost zero attention)

I have a story. About 20 years ago I was playing frisbee with some friends at Hains Point and this guy comes up and asks if he can buy my frisbee for $20. It was a souvenir and I wanted to keep it so I turned him down but said he was welcome to join us.

Our neighbor sells used bikes, and last week he met a customer at a Petworth Pizza Hut. He said he was waiting for the person when a couple of black government SUVs pulled up and then a couple more — and then, out pops Pete Buttigieg.
