Rally/Press event at City Hall, tomorrow (Thurs 6/29) at 9am.

If you are interested in changing conditions on the street, please come show support on your way to work (or whatever). There have been three accidents in manhanttan in the past 10 days (two fatalities) and another fatality earlier this month (Rockaway blvd, i think in brooklyn). Each of these "accidents" was the result of dangerous behaviors and conditions that do not need to exist. The press is finally starting to ask questions about why drivers are not cited for traffic law violations that result in injuries to cyclists and why NYC, a city teeming with pedestrians and cyclists, is so hostile and behind the times when it comes to rational traffic planning. A strong showing from the community will help keep up the pressure that is needed to make some progress.
