More fatalities in traffic

Statesman says we had 23 traffic fatalities in 4 months. And not counting an intoxicated 22 year-old who was killed when descending a capmetro bus.
That is more than five deaths due to lethal vehicles per month in Austin alone.

Yeah, ain't that the truth. Think cycling is dangerous? Try walking around as a pedestrian. Here's number 23:

"The Jeep came to a stop at the intersection and then proceeded to turn northbound onto West Gate Blvd. and struck the pedestrian."

This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town. Be a part of history and make a post!
