John E. Bartley, III (D) K7AAY<p>In 2022, roughly half of traffic fatalities were unbelted. Seat belt compliance is pretty good, about 92%, but half of the deaths are from that 8% who defeat the safety measures. <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/trafficdeaths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trafficdeaths</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/trafficdeath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trafficdeath</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/darwinaward" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>darwinaward</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/safety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>safety</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/driving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>driving</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/darwin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>darwin</span></a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/autodarwinate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autodarwinate</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle-safety/seat-belts" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nhtsa.gov/vehicle-safety/seat-</span><span class="invisible">belts</span></a></p>
geographile<p>In 1983, a driver turning his delivery van from eastbound 24th Street to southbound Mission in San Francisco ran over my foot. He didn&#39;t have great visibility and was trying to beat the crowd crossing Mission at the green.</p><p>Looking back, I&#39;ve always said that it was good I wasn&#39;t pushing a stroller.</p><p>Maybe some intersections need both right and left turn on green arrow, and those arrows only on when no <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/pedestrian" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pedestrian</span></a> traffic is allowed to cross. <br />I don&#39;t know. <br />This is sad.<br /><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/trafficdeath" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trafficdeath</span></a></p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/@SafeStreetRebel/110897486705719745" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sfba.social/@SafeStreetRebel/1</span><span class="invisible">10897486705719745</span></a></p>
