Yet another ground-floor business in a luxury new construction building has closed due to high commercial rent in Dutch Kills. So when are residential rents going to go down??

I was corking an intersection for like 5 seconds after the light turned green as bike marshal in Vickie Paladino’s district. The driver screamed indignantly “You bikes have to follow the rules!!” Buddy, this is a special organized bike tour. The rules don’t matter today!

I love writing letters to my elderly relatives in longhand so I can use my cursive. I especially enjoy writing uppercase cursive Ts and Is. Knowing how to correctly form those two feels like a special, declining skill.

As I lane split my way thru shit show bumper to bumper traffic in Midtown trying to get to the bridge, I tried passing a car that was stopped all askew - halfway in moving lane and half in the no standing zone. I look down and see the driver is fuckin' FACE TIMING. Snatch her phone, crush her car.

A fatal dooring in Queens. A driver threw their car door open without looking, and two kids ran into the door, fell off and got struck by the truck. How sad.

They’re throwing the book at the driver, but when do we indict our transportation system as well? The crash occurred at 2:35 am when traffic had slowed in a work zone. The bus driver was driving from NYC to NC on an overnight trip. There were 2 other crashes in the same location.

Horrifying. Looks like a bomb got dropped on them. When you drive a car on the highway in America, your life is at the mercy of drivers who are using their cell phones, sleepy, drugged up, etc, AND the traffic engineers who don’t care about your safety, just speed.

I can’t overstate how much of a game-changer the 31st St bike lane is for us in Astoria. It’s critical to have a smooth, straight, flat bike lane in the CENTER of the neighborhood. 31st St is where everything is! I don’t want to ride up Crescent to go to United Bros!

This is terrible, biased journalism. The focus is the e-bike, the injuries, and that the child “was not wearing a helmet.” Nothing about the circumstances of the crash- how did the driver hit the child? What was the driver’s speed? It doesn’t even mention the make of the vehicle.
