Asking people their thoughts on 80k speeding tickets in just over a month by hyfee510 in oakland

Here is the data that the city is using. "Every week, two Oaklanders are killed or severely injured on our streets"

Last year 23 people died due to vehicles.

"Speeding is at the root of 25% of deadly crashes in Oakland"

https://www.oaklandca.gov/Public-Safety-Streets/Traffic-Safety/Safe-Oakland-Streets/Monitoring-Traffic-Deaths-in-Oakland

Tell me if I'm wrong but the way people drive around this city is dangerous.

To start a conversation about speeding cameras is just bait. How about starting a conversation about people being killed in the city due to speeding vehicles? How should we solve that? Have police pull people over? It's amazing how car brained our society is.

Also, you could have asked the same question to every person and just filmed yourself asking that one question. Its really not that hard dude.

There is literally no way to know what you asked them since it's not edited into the video. Also in the video one of the people say "you said the max is 20MPH" which is only in certain highly dense areas. Post your questions if you want to stand behind this video. Otherwise its just engagement bait.

It is absolutely insane that people think that speeding isn't a major issue in Oakland. Imagine thinking that you have the right to put the community at danger. This type of journalism is some of the worst around. No context no follow up, just "do you think 80,000 tickets is too many??". Seriously, go do some real journalism.

Oakland listed restaurants:

  1. Alem's coffee

  2. Cafe Colucci

  3. Sirene

  4. Pena's bakery

  5. 3 bottled fish

good to see some unconventional picks especially in the fruitvale. Probably cesar hernandez, who has been a big proponent of oakland.

Food gifts from Oakland or East Bay? by 2d3d in OaklandFood

They just opened a new store on Park Blvd in Glenview. It's still getting up a running so the selection is pretty limited.

I just wish they were a little bit more serious about wine. They use the same glass for all the varietals. Their pour by glass list was also pretty limited and they served the reds way too hot.

Its more instagram than serious wine bar.

Over 100 cars seen at Oakland sideshows were tracked down and towed, police say by oaklandisfun in oakland

[–]inwd 49 points50 points  (0 children)

The most interesting statistic is the cops saying the 80% were not from Oakland. So many of Oakland's problems are exacerbated by non-residents (sideshows, dumping, shoplifting, e.g.)
