This is what pivoting to video looks like. And by pivoting to video I mean I am piloting adding video.

Well it sure is good that Halifax's road safety strategy doesn't make the assumption that kids are responsible enough to be safe road users.

NSNDP could have prevented this in 2010.

It's also very funny to me that the NSNDP chose today, the day when council debates the CAP, to push this messaging.

I wonder why Halifax's Road Safety Strategy isn't working.

Safe Vehicles: Well designed and maintained personal, commercial, and public service vehicles are safer for both
their occupants and other users sharing the road. Newer vehicles can provide better crashworthiness
for occupants and may feature assistive safety technologies for vulnerable road users. Technologies
can adapt vehicles to prevent collisions and severity of outcomes.
Enforce Provincial vehicle safety regulations to ensure that vehicles on our roads meet the minimum
standards for safety and roadworthiness. As vehicle technology advances, consider how proven safety
technologies should be adopted in municipally owned vehicles.

St-Amand is saying that there's no one stop shop for information in this city and that is mostly wrong.

the city's road safety strategy is so bad! Our approach to road safety is assume that everyone makes mistakes and those mistakes can kill people Also the city, less than a page later, we can make roads safer by eliminating mistakes. NO YOU CAN'T! THE INTRO TO THIS SECTION SAYS THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!

Someone should tell the cops that Nova Scotia's guidance to drivers say that zipper merging causes crashes

Hung out in a bike lane at the end of a truck's delivery ramp for a few minutes today. Driver: hey sir can you move? I'm just gonna be a few minutes. Me: hey you should move I'm just gonna be here for a few minutes.

Fares stay low until Dec and the CAO will have to find $288k to fill the budget hole

Missed this section of the capital audit, the audit of the mayor's office expenses is short and to the point.

Okay I was kind of wrong but not completely. Also, worth noting that one of the reasons the C&D facility is allowed to go ahead is thanks to councillor Trish Purdy's bias

What's even more insane is that assuming that this is safe is @hfxgov.bsky.social's road safety strategy

Please be advised that Halifax is currently under a scandal warning, with a major scandal possible on Monday morning. (My last post said watch, but it's warning, not watch, my bad on that one)

A picture to illustrate why Halifax's safe vehicles section of the road safety framework is complete bullshit

Matt Stickland @landofsticks.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Does anyone else ever think about the fact that Halifax's multi-modal level of service framework assesses roads as less good for drivers the safer they become?
