Video from Saturday of Dumpling Spot reversing into the crosswalk and sidewalk as children on scooters and other pedestrians pass behind—in full view of @nypdnews.bsky.social unit specifically doing traffic enforcement! Where’s that vision zero partnership?

Don’t let facts stand in the way

Is this same group up in arms about Ideal deliveries constantly blocking the bus lane? @fdny.bsky.social personal cars obstructing the sidewalk on St John’s? Uhauls parked in crosswalk? etc

173 was a feature I requested

I had a coworker who wore his NRA cap to work immediately after Sandy Hook.

✅ parked in bus stop ✅ reported to NYPD hours earlier (and yesterday) ✅ illegal window tint ✅ @nychealthsystem.bsky.social grade not displayed ✅ NJ registered

The problem—a problem—is the economy which depends on the BQE depends on perpetually increasing capacity, and that plainly can’t happen. Even restoring the short segment may prove infeasible. And traffic rn is untenable. I’m not sure the BQE will survive

100

Even granting economic calculus is all that matters, bike lanes are much cheaper to maintain than car roads. Though I suppose what they really mean is keeping cars out of bike lanes while allowing cars to travel alongsideat speed is expensive

The conspiracy thing distracts from the real issue: - pols need to be crystal clear what “moderation” means in policy terms (they will be asked) - Dems need to present a credible plan to protect the marginalized groups they are putting a spotlight on—even and especially if they lose those seats

100

I agree no need for conspiracy theories. They are just following electoral “common sense”. But they are signaling moderation in the most selfdestructive way possible where the only tangible policy is rolling back various protections. It’s like the Veep where she moderates on abortion

Incidentally other than Hume did any major Enlightenment figures seriously challenge the notion of mental substance? Even Berkeley was an idealist. Ironically (and unintentionally) Hume renders psychology fundamentally indeterministic

Dumpling Spot backed through a number of pedestrians including parents with strollers to park on the sidewalk, unfettered in front of @nypdnews.bsky.social 71pct in case you are wondering how the vision zero partnership is going. 311-29021877

Unfortunately there just isn’t demand for street fairs or open streets

000

Peter W. @kinographer.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Meanwhile basically every street is a de facto truck route given lack of enforcement

Joe Rogan of the left just dropped

Update: @fdny.bsky.social continues to fail as a partner in Vision Zero . @nypdnews.bsky.social continues to fail as a partner by not enforcing basic traffic law. 311-29003750. cc @cmcrystalhudson.bsky.social

I’d like to think I helped blaze the trail

000

Peter W. @kinographer.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Reported this bus twice this afternoon. Improperly closed twice. Don’t even think there was a physical response. IAB complaint filed

000

Aside: because placards aren’t validated anyway and because police allow illegal parking at the slightest hint of an excuse, placard or not, placard procession had lost most of its status. Why keep up the ritual?

Peter W. @kinographer.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Still maintaining a much better reputation than the automobile. Not an excuse for bad behavior! But perspective pls

And then you can’t understand an announcement which is either saying: “will be moving momentarily” or “the entire NYCT is in a state of meltdown good luck”

000

Hasn’t their search already become unusable? Feels like excuse making if I’m honest

000

I have similar thoughts about these orange doohickies some city vehicles now have, which put the onus on pedestrians/cyclists not to get struck as opposed to better road design, smaller safer vehicles, mirrors/cameras, fewer vehicles etc

Peter W. @kinographer.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

If “community opposition” can delay or stifle bike or bus lanes then we might need to pause car lanes until there has been sufficient outreach

031

Granted people are spilling into the service road anyway, but it really does feel like the @nypdnews.bsky.social decided if cars can’t use the service road neither can people.

The amazing transformation of Larivière Street in Montreal into a “sponge street”. It handles excess water in a flood-prone neighbourhood and almost eliminates traffic between a school and a park, next to a very busy road.

Blew an in-law’s mind today when she witnessed first hand @fdny.bsky.social will drive a whole fire engine two blocks to get groceries in manhattan. The station by me always parks in the bus lane too

000

I think the lead up to West Indian Day has been an important litmus test. I realize change doesn’t happen overnight and pols do have to speak to public safety concerns, but endless barricades and police presence concentrated on EP or select neighborhoods send the wrong message

100

New barricades just dropped

000

The biggest problem for NYC in my opinion is lack of leadership prepared to take on corruption. I actually think sources of corruption are *relatively* weak and unpopular (increasingly vestigial), which makes lack of action particularly cowardly not to mention self-destructive

100

Calling it now: the BQE restoration project, if implemented as proposed, will cost at least 15 billion by completion. Whoever came up with 4 billion (already staggering) is taking us for fools

000

We should give it the Highline treatment. A relic from a bygone industrial era.

000

This car was parked here in the crosswalk from 1:30 to 7:00 and reported to 311 twice, in spite of heavy police presence, following the children’s parade. Also a number of illegally parked cars behind in the turning lane underscoring @nypdnews.bsky.social indifference to traffic enforcement
