Sometimes people carelessly ride a scooter on the sidewalk.
More than 100 times a day, people crash cars into American storefronts.
Some of you act like the scooters should be talked about just as often as the cars, as if they're the same type of danger.

The AVE in #vabeach marks the better block’s evolution from temporary pop-up to a permanent part of life in the city. The future is fast and nimble, and the #quickbuild methods we used are an agile alternative to the costly public works projects of the past. (🧵1/6)

A whole Roman neighborhood singing a popular Italian song “Volare” from their balconies and waving at each other. An amazing flash mob to lift the spirit in these crazy times ❤️ #Italy #coronavirus #forzaitalia #roma #flashmob #love
