LA’s darkest hour - Westside Traffic Deaths Highlight L.A. City Botched Safety Plans (michaelschneider.medium.com)

Last Saturday around 6pm, Regan Cole-Graham, a mother of two and pregnant with her third, was out on a bike ride with her husband and two young boys. A driver hit her from behind and killed her, and her unborn baby died at the hospital despite an emergency c-section. This wasn’t an accident. In 2017, L.A. installed bike lanes on Pershing Drive, exactly where she was hit, and removed them after backlash by the neighborhood council, and a lawsuit by Keep LA Moving.

If the bike lanes the city had installed in 2017 had remained in place, Regan likely would be alive today.

....

This is a black or white issue. Anyone running for Mayor or city council that doesn’t talk about this issue and come with political will to redesign our streets is part of the problem. I plan on devoting every fiber of my being to defeating NIMBYism and political cowards. Enough is enough.
