This little 'crisis' was an opportunity, a lever to lift us closer towards shifting away from #motornormativity, and our PM (or his cabinet) failed to see it.

I often find myself thinking about the Michael Mason case. How police officers didn't investigate the death initally, showing #motornormativity in accepting "it was dark so hard to see". Every other driver had managed to see him.

“They trigger a deep-seated rage within us by breaking the moral order of the road.”

I’ve given some presentations related to this and can share resources if you want to dig in more! But two good terms to look up: #Bikelash and #motornormativity. @calbike.bsky.social

Yes, local TV news treats traffic crashes as an inconvenience for commuters versus an actual trauma to families and communities. Each traffic crash report should include the emotional and financial impact the traffic crash has on society. #WordsMatter #ParadigmChangeNeeded #Motornormativity

Because people on foot, with prams, shopping, wheelchairs👨🏾🦽, mobility scooters or canes👩🦯, matter less than one person's desire to protect their car or walk even less... 🙄

No attempted murder charge? If had stabbed them with a knife or shot them with a gun would it be same? Thoughts with all the victims

Campaign kickoff poster with
I can't figure this one out. Is it #motornormativity or does this #a2council candidate simply think that people who will walk, bike, or take the bus are smarter than drivers, so they don't need remedial instructions on how to get there?

That this even needs saying in 2026 after decades of climate warnings is testament to the power of #motornormativity and oil industry lobbying.

Oxford Labour though, which seems to have decided that defending #Motornormativity is the hill they’re going to die on.

one of the funniest arguments against active travel infrastructure is "we've enough new cycle lanes", as if cyclists should settle for going up and down a few individual, disconnected lanes rather than enjoying a fully connected network as motorists do.
again, good example of #motornormativity

Fine paper on #motornormativity focusing on #systemic norms, power relations and negotiations. Quite relevant frame of focus that could enhance the debate and help identifying solutions for improved equity. Additionally, for the first time to my knowledge, uses the term bike-normativity in planning.

Handout für rücksichtslose Autofahrende: §9 Abs. 3 StVO - Abbiegen Wer abbiegen will, muss entgegenkommende Fahrzeuge durchfahren lassen, Schienenfahrzeuge, Fahrräder mit Hilfsmotor, Fahrräder und Elektrokleinstfahrzeuge auch dann, wenn sie auf oder neben der Fahrbahn in der glei- chen Richtung fahren. Auf zu Fuß Gehende ist besondere Rücksicht zu nehmen; wenn nötig, ist zu warten. Das da hinter Ihnen war übrigens ein Stoppschild. Noch Fragen? --> verkehrskindergarten@proton.me
Auf meinem täglichen Fußweg werde ich derart häufig von rücksichtslosen Männern mit ihren Autos geschnitten, und dann in jedes Mal dieselbe bescheuerte Diskussion verwickelt, dass ich mir heute einen Handout gedruckt habe. 🙄

Well that's a relief but it's embarrassing how far this got and it shows that cycling has a long way from being understood in Ireland as a mainstream mode of transport.

Kind of typifies the average cycling commute experience in Britain - a sense of deep foreboding brought by the maritime climate, dismal infra and #motornormativity
Number of times I tried car-free routes - only to find the exits blocked, gated or too narrow for an Urban Arrow or Bullitt 😒

Example of the critical thinking we need to place crash types and devices into the larger context of traffic safety. The biggest issues on our streets are the biggest things on our streets, period.

Why have you included a picture of cars, instead of encouraging students to travel by public transport or walking/cycling, which would help mitigate the problem?

This is *always* the issue. They want to park outside their shop & never consider that businesses consistently overestimate how many customers arrive by car.
Item in our local rag where a bar owner was complaining about people not being able to park for a ‘bar hop’…

Just as I saw this headline in The Telegraph on our “obsession” with potholes, a local Facebook thread is celebrating the fixes - but no one mentions phone use at the wheel or the completely blocked pavement. #motornormativity

Possible responses:
"Jersey is too small to have public transport."
"The distances here are too far to cycle."
"Our density is too high to allow on-street parking."
Etc.
This is #motornormativity at its finest.
