Intercity Transit in Olympia WA is awesome for a number of reasons, including this sign on a seat when we got on this evening to go home after walking downtown for dinner. Transit and civil rights have traveled together a long time.

Heading to Houston Monday for a conference. Stark reminder of whose trips are made easy + fast, whose time is valued: 41-minute driving trip airport to hotel, 2 hours via transit with 1 or 2 required transfers. Hotel is in Galleria area so this isn't a matter of going to rural area.

"It is not possible to prioritize everyone.
Every decision has tradeoffs, and it’s clear who those choices prioritize when you consider the comfort, ease, and safety of different users. When it’s faster, easier, safer, and more comfortable to get somewhere by driving, we are prioritizing driving." --Anna Zivarts

By my friend Anna Zivarts, "Don’t Forget About Non-Drivers in Rural America". Aging population, housing prices, needs of nondrivers all come together in rural America.
https://usa.streetsblog.org/2024/08/23/dont-forget-about-nondrivers-in-rural-americaI highly recommend Anna's book When Driving Is Not an Option https://islandpress.org/books/when-driving-not-option#desc.

This should be great! Book talk Aug. 28 with my friend Anna Zivarts, author of When Driving Is Not an Option, offered by Jonathon Stalls, author of WALK: Slow Down, Wake Up, and Connect at 1-3 Miles Per Hour. I went to a reading and walk audit when Jonathon came to my new hometown of Olympia a while back.

@ascentale @meganL To me #CripCycling fits with the spirit of #CripTheVote but I say that as a non-crip wanting to support #OwnVoices. When I did a Twitter #BikeSchool related to this topic Gabrielle Peters chose #WheelsMoveMe to represent the overlap of cycling and assistive devices. http://bikestylespokane.com/2019/12/10/welcome-to-our-twitter-chat-bikeschool-moveequity-wheelsmoveme/

Observations above are the kinds of things I now cannot avoid recognizing. Side effect of working in transportation and thinking directly every single day about the needs of people who can't or don't drive. The book to give transportation professionals who don't notice these things or don't recognize who benefits and who is burdened by their decisions: https://islandpress.org/books/when-driving-not-option#desc.

Boost/discuss for people who think vehicle tech will take care of safety for them. Kea Wilson's takeaways:
-Systems aren't trained to recognize people who use wheelchairs, other assistive devices, bikes, scooters or motorcycles
-The deadline for compliance got bumped back from 3 to 5 years
-They don't have to be able to stop for pedestrians above 45 mph#RoadSafety #TranspoTech #AV #SafetyOverSpeed #driving #MoveEquity #MobilityJustice #BikeTooter #walking #VisionZero
