Vision Zero failing in SF, New York, Los Angeles, Portland...

| Walk San Francisco |
Vision Zero is failing in San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, and Portland and probably everywhere else.
The city's anti-car special interest groups are calling for a state of emergency, as if a rhetorical escalation and doubling down on anti-carism will do the trick where the slogan and wishful thinking have failed.
Everyone wants safe streets, but City Hall supported bullshit is not only annoying it undermines the credibility of government itself.

| How are we doing? |
Look at the fatality numbers over history in San Francisco and you can see how much better the city is doing now than in the recent past: see pages 5-7 in this document.
Nationwide fatalities per vehicle mile traveled are also going down.

How about "vision zero" for along the panhandle asphalt strip...my god i was walking there and MANY of the idiot bikers think they are in the Tour de France! Pedestrians are at risk if they are walking there from bikers going in BOTH directions....if one of those bikers traveling at just 15 mph hits a walked they will be severely injured! Many of the bikers are likely going much faster. How come I never hear anything about it?
