The reality is that it's better for everyone when Kansas City streets are safe and people feel secure living their lives and conducting biz.
Whilst we might disagree with the politics of Bike/Walk advocates . . . Working to reduce tragedy for EVERYONE in KCMO is a worthwhile goal.
Our only disagreement here is with a rhetorical ploy . . . The reality is that traffic deaths are down this year because there's simply less traffic because of the pandemic.
And so, this latest effort re-brands bicyclist tragedy in order to garner more attention is a historic year for local violence and homicide.

BikeWalkKC raises awareness of 'traffic violence'
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - One Kansas City, Missouri, nonprofit hopes to make the public more aware of traffic violence and the lives lost or harmed because of it. On Thursday, BikeWalkKC will host an online conversation with Amy Cohen, who lost her son to a crash.
all violence is worsening.
ReplyDeleteJust look at the homicide count.
Riding a bike on a street or highway is probably the most dangerous thing most people do. If liberals didn't love them so much they would be illegal.
ReplyDeleteI see so many people who think the road it is clear, or they have a "Walk" signal and they put their head down and don't ever look up again (usually glued to cell phone.)
ReplyDeleteUse common sense. Pay attention, and you won't get run over. Just because you think you have the "RIGHT" to walk, bike, cross, doesn't mean everyone else is on board with it.
Next they'll include raccoon deaths.
ReplyDelete^^^ or paying attention, if your head is buried in your phone while crossing the street you deserve to die, including the idiots on their bikes.
ReplyDeleteDo the bike idiots think the city cares about crime and murder? Why do they think they have more influence than the normal citizens?
ReplyDelete^^do these geriatrics think we care about anything they read on a blog? Why do they think we want to hear about anything they have to say?
ReplyDeleteGet your bike out of the lane of traffic asshole and there won't be a problem.
ReplyDeleteAsshole bikers think they own the place. Stay to the right of the road!
ReplyDeleteIt's not just KC. They do it everywhere. I love watching them shit their spandex when they get buzzed with my truck mirror. I can put it with several inches of them and make em real nervous MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

ReplyDeleteuber-lib Bike fags make no mention of hazards from Democrap BLM scammers slopping "murals" over road markings and lane dividers.
There's nothing more dumb ass then a bicyclists riding down a busy street. I figured this out at 6 years old. The car was gonna win. I guarantee these bicyclists are Democrat liberal a holes. See the trend here.
ReplyDeleteTrump won the Election. We go the dims on fraud. Big news today. Dominion software fraud.
If a bicyclist gets clipped; it's because he was swerving in between cars and not honoring stoplights.
ReplyDeleteSee it all the time as bicyclists fly right through stop signs and stop lights.
Look at me; I am wearing a spandex girdle like Grandma riding a bicycle like a five year old. Look at me; dammit I am an athlete because I ride a bicycle !
How many of the 15 pedestrian deaths were on the interstate system?
