same at Ashby and Hillegas, countdown and flashing red overlap

I feel like the HAWK's are a bit deceptive when you approach from the side street. Usually, if you saw a ped countdown, cross traffic would be seeing a solid red. But for some of our HAWK's, cross traffic can have a flashing red while you see the ped countdown.

seems suspect since ride report shows ebike usage. I thought Veo was only scooters here. q3 26 Berk/Oak 408 ebike rides per day 874 scooter rides per day

Hadn't tried RideReport data until today. I emailed to ask what data they show for Berkeley -- "Currently it includes just Veo data but historically has some other operators. It does not include any personally owned micromobility data. " public.ridereport.com/oakland-berk... @jwbee.bsky.social

seems like they could ask: 1) are you tired 2) is the weather bad 3) are drivers in a foul mood 4) how much exercise is fun

transparency portal seems a bit messed up in the time zone department -- it shows times that are 7 hours earlier. like 1:34 instead of 8:34. Sometimes it shows a daylight time for a no lights citation bpd-transparency-initiative-berkeleypd.hub.arcgis.com/pages/stop-d...

Pretty sure they could do an enforcement op where they follow a random Berkeley driver until they do 25 violations, and then pull them over and give them all 25 tickets. Probably would take less than 30 minutes.

no marked crosswalks, no red zones for daylighting, no bulb outs, no pedestrian refuge islands, and the white lines delineate parking areas, not a bike lane

Berkeley's Office of Economic development dashboard says the commercial vacancy rate on San Pablo is about 8.4%, but if you walk it, you will see about 5 vacant lots and 79 vacant business sites, alongside about 232 active businesses for a vacancy rate of about 25%.

I thought their worst nightmare would be a car hitting a pedestrian a bicyclist another car and a house, all in one accident. Or wait, that happened already there.

Acme is moving across to the west side of San Pablo, so safe and comfortable pedestrian and bike access across San Pablo could be really important to his business. The lights at Virginia and Cedar are not great.

yeah, I've seen that before, while waiting on the bart path to cross Marin, a driver turning right to go on Masonic instead came up the ramp onto the path where we were waiting. All slow-motion, but definitely a person who should not be driving

speed limit there is too fast. blind curves, driveways, and bike lanes Not sure why they switch it from 25 to 35 instead of just leaving it at 25. maybe its the result of an 85 rule speed survey

The Orange county DA announcement for the buyback featured an e-bike crash from October 2024. If you look at Tablert Avenue in 2024, there were 5 bicycle crashes on the same street, all within 3000 feet of roadway, including a nearby fatality. State crash data shows those as non-electric bikes.
