  2. Speed Cameras: Cash Grab?

    "For all I care, the revenue from cameras could be donated to charity – it’s the cameras themselves that have the positive benefit, and the revenue from them seems to cause more problems than solutions."

  5. I haven’t seen it illustrated like this before. Very effective messaging. Of course it actually depends a lot on how fast the vehicle’s being driven, how big the vehicle is and how it’s designed, and how small the victims (too often kids) are. Via @yegbike.bsky.social #SpeedKills #CarBloat

  6. “Andrew Tate to appear in court for allegedly driving 90mph over limit in Romania.” Perhaps been watching a bit too much Top Gear. #SpeedKills

    Dear #USA, I know it is hard, but in #Europa, we don't do just #25mph, we do #20mph Yes that does matter! A lot! #speedkills #30kmh

  15. Will those who tell on themselves by arguing against photo radar argue against this too? Seems like a really good idea to me, one that will very likely save kids lives. #SpeedKills

  16. Remember, when it comes to the actual likelihood that a vehicle crash will occur at all, AND whether the consequences of a crash are serious, or even deadly, or not, speed is ALWAYS a factor. Including when the legal speed limits are currently too high. #SpeedKills #VisionZero

  17. @HeatherTX It makes me speed. & you know how I feel about speed. #SpeedKills

  18. Adding tyreek hill TD. Just heard Drew Rosenhaus say he was angry. #speedkills

  19. A clear case of hatred of EU causing massive brain rot for @gruber

    I have a car with speed control and it is brilliant, the problem is the cars that don’t have it. The sooner we all keep to the speed limit the better.

  20. NEW: Vancouver City Council has passed a motion directing staff to report back with analysis of the benefits and potential funding sources for a citywide speed limit reduction to 30km/h from 50 on local level streets.

    Good move, long overdue. #SpeedKills

  22. CW: Tempo Limit

    #TempoLimit #20IsPlenty #speedLimit

    Whole scale speed reduction in urban areas saves lives. And reduces injuries to people

    In #Surbiton the blanket speed limit of 20 was bought in because Green Party former Cllr Sharron Sumner fought for it. In #Kingston it took three attempts because the LibDems were at war with each other

    Elsewhere in the borough the LibDems won’t bring it in

    We say look after people first - reduce speed #SpeedKills

  23. Via David Zipper on twttr.

    This NYTimes headline is absurd. How effective have ad campaigns ever been on driver behaviors? Very, very little. What is actually effective? Speed cameras, like David Zipper said. Also:

    * Speed tables and raised crosswalks
    * Continuous sidewalks
    * Protected bike lanes
    * Pedestrian medians and bump-outs
    * Leading indicators

    I'd rather see cities improve a few streets at a time with the same money it takes to run an ad campaign.
