I told myself I wouldn’t cry today but a parent at my school did a beautiful #BikeBus video for our 1 year birthday!!

There's no reason for families to continue suffering from the many harmful effects of regulations that promote or even require sprawl. Good urbanism is family-friendly.

Our day two keynote, @CoachBalto, shared inspiring stories and lessons learned from the Bike Bus movement. Thank you, Coach Balto, and thank you to @OneCommute for sponsoring this address!

Obviously the car industry would not be happy for city dwellers to use bicycles instead of cars. They'd be losing market share. So why do you think the car industry promoted bicycle helmets so hard in the 70s & 80s? Could it be they wanted us thinking bikes were dangerous?🤔

As our kids go #BackToSchool, never forget that we ARE the traffic that we’re afraid of. If more kids walked, biked or rode transit to school, it would erase a massive number of car trips each day, and our kids would be safer, healthier and better at school. Spread the word.

@RhysSullivan @nbrempel There's been a huge pullback from admin/parents allowing kids to bike to school. Trying to change that with @BikeBusWorld @CoachBalto

Avoid this like the plague: school car lines are the ultimate policy failures. And just to be clear, being in one does not make you a failure. The failure is in the policies that were put in place—intentionally or not—that funnel families into cars.

The all mighty car lobby. Keeping brains after car crashes off the poster.

Urbanism is all about maximizing vibes per acre

"Ban Cars" is a losing argument. Here's the pitch that wins: "We should build neighborhoods and cities where cars are an option, but not a necessity. Neighborhoods where you can walk your child to the park, and make a quick pitstop at the grocery store on your way home."

American suburbs really are like that.

High volumes of car traffic degrade neighbourhood cohesion, reduce informal social ties, and weaken the liveability of streets. Conversely, calmer streets encourage stronger community bonds and better quality of life. (📜 Donald Appleyard, 1981)
