The vehicles most likely to kill pedestrians receive 4 and 5-star safety ratings from the federal government, essentially misleading consumers to think that they are safe.
More than 15,000 people just asked @NHTSAgov to change this dangerous system.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul’s Public Works Departments are working with University of Minnesota researchers to measure how many drivers stop for people crossing the streets, and how engineering treatments may affect safety. minneapolismn.gov/news/2021/… @cityofsaintpaul @HumanFIRST_Lab

Crews have completed the installation of gateways signs at entry points in Minneapolis alerting drivers that the speed limit is now 20 mph in the city unless otherwise signed. news.minneapolismn.gov/2020/… #20isplenty

Released today: City Limits, a guide to safe #speedlimit setting on urban streets.
The most commonly used speed limit setting practices in the U.S. are oversimplified, outdated, & unsafe. City Limits provides an easy-to-follow context-sensitive approach.

To support safety, Minneapolis & @cityofsaintpaul are lowering speed limits on most local streets to:
2️⃣0️⃣ mph on local residential streets
2️⃣5️⃣ mph on larger City-owned streets
Slower traffic speeds make travel safer for everyone.

Over the last month, fatal traffic crashes have doubled 😢statewide even though total crashes are down. We can work together to change that. 🤝
⬇️ Reduce driving as much as possible
📉 Drive at safe speeds if you need to drive

I just realized we have a photo of Alex Wolf in the Mpls Vision Zero Action Plan. His best idea for making our streets safer. It breaks my heart that he didn’t get to see us do these things.

Everyone driving, please slow down and pay attention!
Tonight motorists in the @CityMinneapolis should expect extra pedestrian traffic, particularly around dusk. We ask all motorists in our city to exercise extra caution this evening. As a reminder, there is no school tomorrow for teacher record keeping day.
