    people drivin round in their killer #SUV, going like »oh i'm just a tiny little pedestrian« once they park it — like that 1950s #MotorMania cartoon with Goofy.

    judging from this #motorist bias, it's almost certain he's a car driver:

    > Injuries related to e-bikes spiked 1,022% from 2020 to 2024, and the American College of Surgeons says only one third of injured e-bike riders were wearing helmets.

    if you sit in your chair in your garden and a tiger jumps out and bites you in the face, sure, technically you could call that a chair accident or a garden-related injury.

    that shit is the victim-blamiest way wiping the responsibility for #carviolence onto #cyclists.

  6. "China Plans To Limit How Fast Your Car Accelerates To 100kmph At Startup"

    Since all cars are controlled electronically now, this must become the norm.

    Obviously good for safety. And to limit energy consumption which saves money and spare the planet.

    We must limit what our overpowered growup toys can do. It's a no brainer really.

  7. Today's delivery run. I park outside the post office next to a sign advertising a lottery which has cars as prizes. On the way home I cross the road next to evidence of the everyday violence handed out to pedestrians and cyclists by drivers.

  9. CW: Car Violence against KC humans on bikes, instagram

    Someone used their car to hit and injure a person riding a bike and then fled the scene. The cyclist is recovering but we need help finding the driver. This was Thursday 12/8 around 6pm on the loop around the downtown airport. #CarViolence
