Car parked too close to an intersection and blocking a crosswalk

Car parked too close to an intersection and blocking a crosswalk

@dannyavula.bsky.social how about you let people report things like bad parking and they can than get a cut of the fine? RPD doesn't seem to want to go out of their way.

Two cars blocking two different alleys

Two cars blocking two different alleys

Richmond drivers are bad and there is no accountability. Easy revenue could come from one person walking around Carytown writing tickets for 8 hours a day.

At the Rhode Island SPCA, you can pay for a cat to rip your ex's heart apart For some Valentine's Day isn't about love, it's about revenge. The Rhode Island Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has a stinky opportunity for those wishing to express a grudge.

Four of the city's planned 10 red light cameras have been installed and should be operational by next Friday. They'll start issuing $50 citations after a 30-day grace period. (News release)

The cameras are at: 25th & Main; Belvidere & Cary; Chamberlayne & Brookland Park; and Chamberlayne & Laburnum.

Why should there be a grace period for newly installed red light cameras?

It's not like stopping at a red light is a new concept.

Why no one has been charged after six pedestrian deaths in Richmond The investigations into all six recent pedestrian deaths are ongoing, Police Chief Rick Edwards said Thursday.

I guess if you want to kill someone, just run them over!

Can't wait for the Commonwealth Attorney to not charge any of the drivers 🙃

Democrats don’t understand the attention economy aspect of politics in the slightest. Who is going to pay attention to a vote and blame Republicans in the way they’ve been paying attention to the shutdown and blaming Republicans?

Senate reaches deal on ending the shutdown Democrats are coalescing around a bipartisan agreement to fund the government.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Knocked over lamp post laying across sidewalk in a commercial district

Lamp post gets knocked over by a Kroger truck onto a busy sidewalk and it takes 2+ hours to respond to even put up caution tape? I should have dragged it into the road so it would get faster attention. Keep it Richmond Real @dannyavula.bsky.social

Under Donald Trump’s economy:

Coffee is up 26%
Beef is up 14%
Oranges are up 17%
Bananas are up 6%
Chicken is up 6%
Chocolate Chip Cookies are up 5%
Potato Chips are up 4%
Milk is up 4%
But average worker pay is only up 2%

Trumpflation is eating up your paycheck.

Seeing this billboard up has been incredible and this shot from @visionzerovancouver.ca of the team of volunteers is pretty moving TBH.

I have an essay in @theglobeandmail.com this weekend.

It's about how I and a group of parents fought to have street outside our children's elementary school closed to cars.

This year, we succeeded!

Now we're going to have to fight to keep it in place.
