Intersection where it is reported a cyclist lost his life yesterday after crashing into pedestrian. Today, no bike is stopping at red NYC Parks NYC DOT Central Park . High speed biking is encouraged now Sad + bound to happen. NYC E-Vehicle Safety Alliance has been fighting for safety... In CP!show more

This is around the bend from a blind curve and downhill. Cyclists can only see the full crosswalk, at best, from 100' away. At 20mph, that leaves 3.4 seconds for Cyclists and pedestrians to react, if they are paying attention. Deepest condolences for the Cyclist. Family, and friends for this seemingly preventable tragedy. Shame on Parks, the Conservancy, and DOT for encouraging high speed biking in the park!

@nyc_evsa @NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC As one of the very few cyclists who does stop at red lights in Central Park, I have received nasty comments and other cyclists riding way too close to me as they pass while I am waiting. Where is the enforcement?!

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa It’s the Bike Expressway of Death. #ShutItDown

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa no bikers ever do anywhere in the park. i've never once seen one stop never. they think they have the right of way and don't obey stop signs. they should they can get hurt as well as walkers, pets and even crossing turtles trying to lay eggs!

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa I have zero sympathy for any biker who gets hurt bc they have contempt for everyone else

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa They never stop

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa This is so sad and frustrating. Cyclists need to follow the rules too—running red lights puts everyone at risk. @CameronWest38CameronWest38 has been talking about this exact issue. Safety has to come first.

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa Bikes don’t have a place on roads they can build a park for bikes and play there. Or Amsterdam has a place for bikes,

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa Sadly need license plates cameras tickets

@NYCParks @NYC_DOT @CentralParkNYC @nyc_evsa A series of big speed bumps would help. As would a spike strip to burst tires.
