When I report an ADA issue, the city now asks if I'm disabled and for my PII. How is this not a breach of confidentiality? And what does it matter? In this case a sidewalk was closed with no detour for wheelchair users. Wheelchair users are forced into the street, what does it matter who I am?

Meanwhile here in California.
Bollards run over on Nimitz Blvd where the road curves and drivers go too fast to stay in their lanes. Happens so often its own google streetview.

Hmm, I guess they don't weight "will give you the thrill of a lifetime" very highly.

If you're helmet shaming but you've never advocated for protected bike lanes you don't actually care about our safety. You just want an excuse to yell at someone on a bike.

@mayor.lacity.gov I thought you said you were a "lifelong biker" who supports our advocacy for safe streets like CicLaVia? Which one is it? Do you support safe streets or not?

Holding a driver's license is an extremely weak signal for whether you know or follow the rules of the road.

As usual, zero consideration for where bikes are supposed to go when you close a bike lane. Of course 2 car lanes are kept open.

This street is the only bike route from downtown San Diego and the coast, beaches etc. There's a similar path on the south side of the street, but the Port of San Diego banned ebikes from it. There are incomplete Class II lanes on the highway. Nonetheless there's tons of bike traffic to the beach

New walk/bike path finally opened up after 5 years on the north side of Harbor Dr next to the airport. Pretty nice, except of course it stops literally halfway to Point Loma and dumps you on to the highway. Why would anyone on bikes actually want to ride somewhere useful? /s

City Council is trying to enshrine free parking at Mission Bay and other beach areas. This is a mistake, not only does it cut off an important source of much needed funds for the park which is struggling just to keep bathrooms open, the free parking is misused making it unavailable to park goers.

or use one of the car only freeways that trillions of our tax dollars were spent on Especially in the urban core of San Diego where drivers are spoilt with so many freeways there's almost nowhere you need to go that is more than a few blocks from one Instead they try to kill me cutting thru a park

Please ask them to remove these anti-pedestrian signs that are located at almost every major intersection. They force pedestrians to cross 3 streets instead of 1, tripling the risk of getting hit by a turning car. Not to mention forcing pedestrians to wait up to 10 minutes in the hot sun

It's bad when I can tell by the sound of the engine when they're going to run the red light. Heard this guy flooring it between blocks and come to a screeching halt in the middle of the crosswalk so I started filming.

95% of the conflicts I have with cars are caused by free parking taking up a huge amount of road space. You think drivers would be grateful to be given miles and miles of the most expensive real estate on the planet for free to store their property. But no, they can't be bothered just to pass safely

Frustrated by the fact that the backlash against the bike lanes couldn't have easily been avoided by having parking protected bike lanes. Convoy st is in dire need of a road diet anyway. Cars floor it to 50 just to slam on the brakes at the next block and wait 2 mins at each massive traffic light.
convoy st. plenty of room for bike lanes and parking

"Not enough parking" Of course, since they're all private lots you have to park in the lot belonging to the exact strip mall you're going to. The most inefficient use of land possible.

💯. This one is on the wrong side of the most popular walk/bike path in San Diego and I have or witness a near miss every time I walk through the crosswalk by a driver who stops at where the sign is (if they stop at all).
