Of course. Worse yet, they claim that a protected bike lane could avoid every accident. They even fought for and got a protected lane on 9th Street when the lady who shouldn't have been driving killed a pedestrian a few years ago A bike wasn't even involved and Transportation Alternatives used it as a reason for the bike lane, and deBlasio listened, ignoring residents who claimed the lane made things more dangerous by diverting cars to 8th and 10th Streets.

Did you see the viral Borough Park Video of a kid dashing out in front of a car? There is no way the driver could have stopped in time. The headline should have been for parent's to instruct their children not to be idiots. The person who pusted the video said he did so to alert parents to tell their children to cross at the corner.

So what did the media do with this video. They showed it asking motorists to SLOW DOWN and be aware. Again to make it appear like it was the driver's fault. So what will be deBlasio do lower the speed limit to 10 mph? He still would have struck the kid. By some miracle, the kid appeared to be unhurt.

Imagine if the kid would have been killed and there would not have been a dashcam video. Would anyone believe the driver that the accident was unavoidable?
