In an urban setting, bikes are consistently faster than cars for trips up to 5 km. E-bikes increase that distance to 10 km. Turns out drivers vastly underestimate time spent sitting in traffic, searching for parking, and walking to their final destination: dailyhive.com/vancouver/cycl… – at Vancouver, British Columbia

Doable. Everywhere. "A breakthrough design on La Jolla Boulevard in San Diego cuts crashes by 90% and gives local business a shot in the arm." Not tech or $; it's political. cnu.org/publicsquare/2018/01…

Whenever I try to type “the hero our city needs” it also autocorrects to dongho. Weird!

"Bicyclists should follow traffic laws, for safety!"
"Ok sure, let's also install speed cameras for safety."

Only a failed city doesn't provide safe and generous spaces for walking and cycling people.
