Just need to vent. A short recap:

  1. I​n September 2022, Phoenix City Council unanimously approves a comprehensive Vision Zero Road Safety Action Plan. Yey.

  2. “Pavement maintenance (new asphalt) is scheduled along this corridor, which presents an opportunity to reconfigure the striping”

Perfect! In line with Vision Zero can re-stripe to optimize for safety of all road users!

What’s that? First you want to check if that’ll upset people who are used to having free parking for their personal vehicles there?

… and if it does upset people then actually fuck the safety of other people parking is most important thing…

And, surprise surprise, people who are used to having free parking for their personal vehicles are indeed upset that the free parking they were never entitled to in the first place will be taken away.

Well then! Fuck those people on bikes indeed! Get a car asshole and drive like a normal person; hey at least there’s lots of free parking in Phoenix!

    I think it’s crazy that any city doesn’t have a vision zero plan. Without one, you’re basically “giving yourself the green light” to vehicular manslaughter.
