From a driver who survived when her car (
totaled) was pushed across 4 lanes of
rush hour traffic by a driver on a marijuana high, I applaud legislation to make this drug hard to get.
After a protected bike lane was installed on Chicago's Kinzie Street: Bicycle ridership on increased 55 percent, according to morning
rush hour counts; Forty - one percent of respondents changed their usual route to take advantage of the new lane; Bicyclists accounted for a majority of all eastbound
traffic (53 percent) and more than one third (34 percent) of
total street
traffic during a CDOT
traffic count conducted during morning
rush hour in August 2011.
