    ?? This afternoon yet another child was seriously injured after being struck by the driver of a Chevy Tahoe. That makes 4 in the past week, with 2 of those involving serious injury. Today's incident occurred in District 19 (Frank Mascari). Where are our elected leaders? Why are they not speaking up? Do they not care that children are being mowed down on our streets? Where is the urgency from the city to do something (anything, really) about this crisis in the short term? Crickets. Crickets, while children are being mowed down on our streets.

    *** MULTIPLE CHILDREN STRUCK BY DRIVERS IN THE PAST 24 HOURS *** In the 24-hour period between 3/12 8:41PM and 3/13 8:24PM: * THREE Juveniles were struck by drivers of vehicles * ALL THREE were transported to local hospitals by medics * TWO were riding bicycles at the time they were struck * ONE was classified as involving Serious Bodily Injury (SBI) The two riding bicycles were 13 and 9 years old, respectively. The third, on foot when struck, was just 7 years old. The first incident occurred in District 25 (Brian Mowery), the second occurred in District 14 (Andy Nielsen — Vision Zero Task Force), and the third occurred in District 11 (Crista Lee Carlino). ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. We need our elected officials to show URGENCY and we need them to do so without any further delay. We've been told that we have to take this slow and we have to be deliberate. Slow and deliberate is going to get more of our city's children injured and killed —?and that is simply NOT acceptable. CC: Maria Cantrell

    Happy to share that my note, “The Road to Safer Streets: Tackling the Pedestrian & Cyclist Safety Crisis in Indianapolis,” is now officially published in the Indiana Health Law Review. This long process wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support of our editors, my wonderful advisors Nicole Berwick and Lee Little, and the hard work of Safe Streets Indy (Eric Holt) in raising awareness about this critical issue. Check out the link below to read my note.

    This morning a bicyclist was struck and killed near the intersection of Raymond & Shelby. Sadly, this is an intersection we know all too well. Last September, a volunteer installed one of our “How Many?” signs at this location due to 4 prior non-fatal ped/bike incidents in the area. Since the installation of the sign there have been two additional non-fatal bicyclist incidents. Now, a person is dead. Yet, this week we were told that the process to fix this has to be slow and deliberate. We were told we have to re-analyze the data. Figure out where the problem areas are. Slow and deliberate is going to get dozens of our fellow citizens killed before we ever lift a finger to do any actual work. We have the data. We know where we need to implement fixes. We know what fixes we need to implement. Stop letting bureaucracy get in the way of saving lives! More information about this morning’s fatality can be found here: https://lnkd.in/gsq7jjQn
