Congressman Blumenauer Demands Attention to Bike Fatalities
Remember when you watch this that the share of all traffic fatalities that are bike/ped in Florida is 22% (and 23% in Lee County)--not the 15% national number he cites. He makes a strong case for bike/ped getting their "fair share" of the transportation safety dollars...the argument BikeWalkLee made to our Florida elected officials which fell on deaf ears.
