Cyclist critically injured after being stuck by driver in St. Paul The driver involved in the crash remained at the scene and cooperated with police.

It's beyond time for @cityofsaintpaul.bsky.social and @mndot.mn.gov to figure out how to plow Fish Hatchery Trail in winter. This #TrafficViolence was entirely preventable.

It has been a disastrous week for #trafficviolence in the #hudsonvalley. Four dead in three crashes in three days, several others critically injured, and now another person has been shot in a road rage fight. And the week isn’t over yet.

On Development: Traffic violence is more than an accident – Matter News Traffic violence is not a term in common usage. But it’s a whole lot more accurate than “accidents” – a benign misnomer for the carnage that can take place on our streets and highways.

#trafficEngineering is a social science not technical profession and if we're not going to hold the Engineer of Record accountable for #trafficViolence, then they should not hold any authority over street design. #visionZero

It's important to understand that infrastructure design is the single biggest issue. Distracted driving is certainly a problem, but unsafe road design is the true cause here and nearly every other instance of #TrafficViolence.

We also see the disparity of accountability between different random deadly violence

Imagine the response & punishment if these lives were stolen by a young "urban" man with an unlicensed handgun

screenshot of an alamy stock photo purchase page. The image is a cartoon showing two children in a crosswalk next to a park in a residential area. There is a soccer ball in the street, and the kids were apparently trying to retrieve it. But there is also a red light facing the crosswalk, presumably meant to tell the children not to cross, and next to the crosswalk is a truck, stopped, with the driver leaning his whole torso out the window pointing at the boys with a violently angry expression on his face. 
The caption for the image reads: "Traffic violation scene. Kids violated road rules, boys cross path for ball. Outdoor children dangerous situation, roadway risk play. Danger car."

If you're a #nyc cab driver who fails to yield to pedestrians and cyclists, and you decide to deliberately reverse into the cyclist who calls you out.... You should have noticed the GoPro on his handlebar first.

They're reframing everything to blame the victims and committing to motornormativity. #TrafficViolence is committed by drivers, not cyclists and pedestrians.

Props to CBS Dallas for showing something that usually goes unshown, the injuries suffered by a kid hit by a driver in a parking lot.

Traffic violence is out of control in Los Angeles, but none of our political leaders are talking about it.
We need to do better. As a cyclist, pedestrian, and driver I care about safer streets.

A 14 y.o. pedestrian is dead after a driver crash Aug. 13 in Wichita, KS.

A witness hopes to never see something like this again.

Safe streets aren't a luxury.
They’re a right.
And it’s time we demand systems that prevent tragedy—not just respond to it.
