Classic @SFPD @DanielLurie lies, cover-up, corruption, and silence. I'm sure the internal investigation will find no wrongdoing - like they always do.
🖕🖕
Video confirms Mission Local's initial reporting: A police officer lunged at a fleeing suspect with a "football tackle," seconds before that man crashed his scooter and died.
The SFPD statement omitted any mention of officer contact with the suspect, merely stating he "collided with a street fixture."

So, guys pushing themselves up and down hills in all kinds of shit weather, staring down violent death from careless drivers at every turn, using only their muscles and lungs, are the weak “incels” while this dipshit, moving his foot from side to side in his car, is the real man.
#carspreading is a new buzzword being tossed around by pedalphiles.
It refers to large SUVs taking up more and more space on the road. Like #manspreading
Masculine men take up space. Weak, effeminate and submissive men do not.
Drivers - never apologize for taking the lane. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO IT!
No, only some of the working class. Such a cop-out. Most of the working class would rather have a public park than a very inconsequential car highway.

People will (straight-faced) say "just take 2 minutes to walk the long way" but lose their mind in rage if they are asked to spend 2 more minutes in their car. Crazy.

hey dude, just wanted to say I think it’s really lazy and lame to repost an artist’s work without tagging them for some quick elonbucks!
(This is my cartoon, plenty more like it on my page. Would appreciate if you edited your post, since you’re paying for that feature!)

Happy Bike Month to everyone who helps make space for people to ride bikes.
👋 @Caltrain so because this train is delayed, you turn the 519 Express into a local train too? Effing stupid. How are you so bad at trains? You need to let the express train go ahead. Your one job is trains and you're so so bad at it.

This is the new norm for @Caltrain -- the sole restroom on every train always out of service. Why are you having this issue, Caltrain? Do you have any trains with working restrooms?? 🤔
Restroom Out of Service: Train 421restroom is unavailable. Please use nearby facilities and plan ahead.. More Details at app.simplifytransit.com/aler…

Beware Muni riders! In the past, they've been REALLY bad with signage and communication around the transition from subway service to shuttles. They start the shuttles LATE, from the END of the line (none starting on Market) so you might wait 1-2 hours. Good luck!
The Market St. Subway will close early at 9:30 p.m. May 18–21 for Fix It! Week.
🔵 Shuttle buses along Market Street until midnight
🔵 #TThird & Owl svc unchanged
🔵 Look for blue shuttle signs

CAR CULTURE every day on this site and IRL.
"I follow the rules of the road. I mean, not the rules about
🤷♂️ speed
🤷♂️ tailgating
🤷♂️ traffic lights
🤷♂️ passing cyclists
🤷♂️ yielding at crosswalks
🤷♂️ or texting while driving.
But I basically follow the rules of the road."

People do not cause congestion, cars do.
Get rid of the cars, get rid of the congestion.
Simple.

"Residents won't use bikes or scooters."
"Commuters won't use bikes or scooters."
"Tourists won't use bikes or scooters."
And then something magical happens when you create a network of bike lanes.

IF
"it's important to consider the systemic issues"
THEN
Understand decades of people receiving slaps on the wrist for causing death & destruction has contributed to a terrible safety culture. Without severe consequences, people are more likely to drive recklessly. Or continue driving long after they should.
Someone reported online that this was a scooter rider and the bus driver/operator didn't see him and hit him.
@SFMTA_Muni did you actually corroborate the driver's story yet? Certainly wouldn't be the first time people have lied and tried to cover up the truth. Accountability!
We are deeply saddened to share that at approximately 6:50 a.m. this morning, a 38 Geary bus was travelling west (outbound) on Geary Boulevard near Keany Street, when a male pedestrian reportedly fell from the sidewalk and made contact with the Muni bus. (1/4)

They should just say that the bus driver hit & k*lled the pedestrian. Even if it was unexpected, the bus must've too close, going too fast, etc.
I like fast buses, but NEVER at the expense of people walking (who are often also riders). Muni drivers are often SUPER aggressive.
