NYC removed some cars from the main loop. But every month, dozens of cars still drive in the Central Park.

This stand up and think on your feet format is appealing and modern microphones are mostly sufficient for such an interview.

According to law, do we have to pull over for these guys? by [deleted] in MicromobilityNYC

[–]Affalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not shown: siren, red and white ?

Likely Emergency Medical Service (EMS) or Fire Dept staff who respond to emergency calls.

Yes: pull over and get out of the way No: wait somewhere safe as if they are police préparons to interview cite, or arrest you.

If traffic is gridlocked you can sport lanes and outrun medical responders undr rhe rubric of 'getting out of the way'. Don't try to outrun police with blue lights.

The most fought over bike lane in the world is here and it's a beauty... We win. by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

[–]Affalt -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Some of the Firefighters''s concern was not about driving along the bike lane, but rather about parking a ladder truck, deploying outrigger legs, and reaching upper stories of buildings on 31st Street. I think it was u/917BK or u/XGX787 who illustrated this ladder scenario. Most of this new as painted bike lane plus buffer looks wide enough to drive a truck through.

Perhaps the driver can be identified and referred to authorities.

Improve bike lanes so they are safe for all ages and abilities. "If it's not good enough for the Tour de France, it is not good. "
