#LeedsUK - The city closing down streets so children can play
Kate McGough, 8/4/2026
"The idea of regularly closing down residential streets for children to play was started in 2009 by a group of parents in Bristol, who wanted to show that 'playing out near home should be normal, it doesn't have to be a special event'. "

CW: Warning: fatal bike collision
A few days ago, a 15 year old was killed in a collision with a van in Bend, Oregon, while riding an #ebike.
Disappointingly and predictably, people are harping how dangerous ebikes are, and that the rider wasn't wearing a helmet.
My first thought was, "wait a minute, do we know whether the ebike motor or lack of helmet had anything to do with the poor kid's death?" Pedestrians and (non electric) cyclists are killed by vehicle every day in America. This felt like victim blaming and pearl clutching over new technology, avoiding discussion of the real problem (#FuckCars!).
Turns out, I'm right...
https://bikeportland.org/2023/06/28/opinion-lets-have-the-right-conversations-after-tragic-bend-e-bike-death-376575This is where the kid died (in attached picture, yellow arrow). Does this look like a safe place for bikes or kids? Fuck no.
As Jonathan Maus, the author of that article states:
"Folks need to spend less time pointing fingers and more time in front of a mirror. I’m hearing a lot of people demand “more education!”, “more enforcement!”, “more laws!” Those are lazy responses because they put the onus on someone else to do something. If we want to make streets safe for everyone, we must reflect on our own behaviors. One of the major tenets of the “safe systems” approach to traffic safety (that PBOT and many other cities are working on as part of their vision zero goal) is that our streets should allow people to make small errors in judgment without the consequence of death."#cycling #ebikes #safestreets #biketooter #bikesafety #bikeportland
