New study suggests that Level 2 driving assistance systems (like Tesla Autopilot) increase distracted driving: "Drivers spent more time looking at the touchscreen when the automated system was operational relative to manual driving." doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.…

Ald. La Spata is correct: @ChicagoDOT current plan for Chicago/Halsted goes against @ChicagosMayor agenda on public health, climate change, transportation and #ETOD + harms @cta at a vulnerable time + sets a dangerous precedent for other intersections. We can do much better.

Chicago’s bus lane mileage is pathetic relative to peer cities. It’s past time for our roadway agencies to lead in not just planning but building dozens of bus only lanes - an incredibly inexpensive way to rightsize streets and prioritize sustainable transportation. 🚌 🌎 ❤️

Bike the drive - fabulous as always. A reminder that better things are possible.
Great take. Hi-Speed rail is good. Hi-Speed & Hi-Frequency rail is better. We are approaching 20 yrs without increasing service. It’s time to do it. Editorial: A renovated Union Station is pointless without frequent, reliable service chicagotribune.com/opinion/editor…
Second time I’ve seen this *same van* in the Harrison St bike lane. When I asked the driver if he knew he was in a bike lane, he said “Yup” and that he’ll park there again. Painted lines are not sufficient. @ChicagoDOT @King4thWard
