>RCNY 4-12 (p)(3) Bicyclists should ride in usable bike lanes, unless they are blocked or unsafe for any reason.

This was specifically put in place by NYC to allow bicyclists to use the streets by superseding NY State VTL § 1234 which requires bikers to use a bike lane if available. In NYC they are not required to use the bike lane, as per the text you posted. "Should", unlike "shall" (the verbiage used in VTL 1234 which RCNY 4-12 (p)(3) supersedes), suggests but does not require they do the stated action. It also gives reasons, which I brought up prior, for why she may not have been in the bike lane.

Micromobility subs post about NYPD camping at spots near bridges to check for bells, lights at dusk, and people who merge into traffic at reds. They don't alert for NYPD stopping people for riding in the street because NYPD does not stop people from riding in the street.

You seem to really go above and beyond to nit pick and misinterpret the text of a NYC law when the driver here clearly violated VTL 1146 , VTL 1122, and VTL 1120, resulting in a woman's death.

If you need clarification on the law you can reach out below and they will talk it out with you on the phone:

>Then what’s the point of the bike lanes? If they’re optional then why have them? Why advocate for ticketing cars for driving or parking in the bike lanes?

Bike lanes can offer a safer alternative to the street. Sometimes they are less safe if they are blocked, not maintained or have pedestrians in them. Sometimes, like on this road, there are a line of parked cars between the street and the bike lane and you have to ride down the street before entering the bike lane. Regardless, it is legal and logical for bikes to ride in the street.

>No the fuck it’s not!

It is.

> Ignoring the bike path to ride in the street with the cars and commercial vehicles is more equivalent to a pedestrian crossing a highway, ignoring the pedestrian bridge or a subway rider crossing the tracks instead of using the pedestrian tunnel underneath / bridge above.

No. All those examples you give are illegal behavior and people using infrastructure in a way it was not designed to be used. She was 100% in the right and did nothing wrong by riding her bike in the street. Legally and operationally street infrastructure is not just for trucks and cars, it is for bikes, motor cycles, scooters and some micro mobility as well.

She was legally in the right and you're just coming up with excuses for this person who killed her while breaking the law so that you can be what? Convenienced? Is it a culture wars "anti-bike" thing? I think you're purposefully ignoring the fact that two people were involved in this incident. One broke the law and killed someone. One followed the law and died anyway. You are telling me the person who broke the law and killed someone did nothing wrong, a very smooth brained take. Keep it real my dude.

I've seen an 18 wheel try to turn onto a numbered residential street from an ave, get stuck, and rip 2 parked cars apart backing out. Ave traffic was blocked for like 30+ minutes and people still complain about bikes :/

It was 100% legal for her to be riding in the street. It was legally ambiguous at best for the truck to be even on that street, and the maneuver they made to pass her was illegal. Now shes dead and it's her fault?

This is like when someone gets shot or assaulted and someone comes out and says "oh well they shouldn't have been out so late", "What were they doing in that neighborhood", "They should have known better". Bitch, that car broke the law, she did not, now shes dead. stfu.

edit: getting the 'a redditor is concerned about you' admin alert is honestly so satisfying because you know you pissed someone off enough to actually make them go out of their way and make a dozen clicks.

The Kala Santiago killing is so infuriating. That truck driver said she panicked when he crossed the double yellow to pass her and fell under her truck. There are pictures of the parked cars where you can see her bike gashed them open when she was crushed between them and the truck.

Dude was driving recklessly (not 100% sure it is even legal to drive a tractor trailer on that street) and the dude killed someone because of his negligence, and just walked away. Fuck that.

At least play a fun game if you're going to be a little shit about it.

Literally:

1. show up to Qatar

2. ???? [definitely not a financial crime]

3. Profit

They'll just lie like they do now and close the complaint 10 minutes later stating they checked and didn't observe any violation.

They literally doxed his fucking daughter after she got picked up at a protest. All the personal details on her arrest document, address, etc. Absolute scum.

Best I can do is hire 150 more cops and budget for a fleet of killer NYPD robo dogs.

There should be a sub for shit like this.

I can't wait until I'm poor enough to be able to afford a $20,000 car plus gas plus insurance plus maintenance plus parking. Until then I guess my rich ass is walking/biking/taking the subway.

> Is it? People aren't following traffic laws going the wrong way and cutting off pedestrians with walk signals, riding in designated zones

Bro have you seen driving in NY?

Whats the body count on bikes/scooter vs cars?

spoilers, cars have it by magnitudes. Even when adjusted per vehicle capita.
