Every year in Metro Vancouver, car crashes kill 100 people. We could get to zero if governments designed transportation systems to put safety first.

Yesterday, a cyclist was killed by the driver of a Dodge Ram pickup in East Van. People will use the word "accident" but this didn't need to happen. A long list of policy failures got us here. This thread will document these failures 🧵

vancouversun.com/news/local-new… FAILURE 1. The lack of protected east-west cycling infrastructure across the city. This crash happened at 11th and Clark, 2 blocks south of Broadway. And don't say 10th is better. See the map of ICBC-reported cyclist collisions below. 10th is the worst street in the entire city. A map highlighting all crashes where a driver hit a cyclist between 2018-2022. 10th Avenue is highlighted. It is full of circles indicated numerous crashes.
