Silence from the MP…

So strange to be unable to say anything on the increased level of harm to children…

Is it #MotorNormativity ?

That's proper "cycling is not a serious form of transport" stuff #Motornormativity

@andydrummond.eurosky.socialSep 21, 2026, 8:04 AM

There does seem to be an idea that people are only cycling for exercise (hence people whinging on Facebook about being held up by “someone’s hobby”) rather than transport (and getting incidental exercise #Motornormativity

She’s not proposing we ban diesel trucks at peak hours…

LibDems showing they have lost the plot.

Two billion pounds wasted on subsidising the middle class car drivers who could cycle or catch the bus.

I can tell you right now that the LD membership would crawl over broken glass all the way to Mars to vote against another coalition agreement with the Tories. It is not happening, even more so as the Tories have utterly lost the plot.

This policy is #motornormativity, pure and simple. And wrong.

I’ll tell you what does cause er, checks notes, sudden deaths, ignoring traffic lights.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Most people view traffic lights as helpful landmarks that keep road and pavement users safe. To a group who call themselves "Blade Runners", however, the traffic scanners installed above them increasingly conceal a sinister purpose: to install "phased array electronic assault weapons" on city streets that they claim can carry out mass surveillance and even cause cancer, dementia and sudden death.

#motornormativity gone mad

You can make a case that antisocial #motornormativity feeds into the social media outcry from a small & impassioned group (& the associated online abuse of councillors) that results whenever any scheme is proposed involving #TrafficRestriction or removing of parking to make walking & cycling safer

"Une voiture a percuté un cycliste de 44 ans avant de prendre la fuite et d'être interpellée quelques kilomètres plus loin."

Saleté de voiture autonome ! Heureusement qu'elle a été interpellée ! 🙄

This is a big thing - the reason adults cycle on the pavement is because the roads feel too dangerous.

Ultimately, the only solution to this is reallocation of carriageway space, or reducing the volume/speed of motor traffic, but these seem to be politically difficult due to #Motornormativity

Opletten in de auto!

Niet omdat @omroepwest.nl schrijft over veiligheid in het verkeer, op die weg is immers gisteren nog een ongeluk gebeurd.

Nee, je kunt geflitst worden! En dat is héél zielig voor die hardwerkende verkeershufter. Dat kost centjes!

Peak #Motornormativity madness

@blackfordsaferoutes.co.ukSep 13, 2026, 1:28 PM

That’s because the council, subconsciously or otherwise, cannot see beyond keeping all streets as through-routes to all traffic. #Motornormativity

@georgeweeks2014.bsky.socialSep 7, 2026, 9:10 PM

Oh come on. This is morning rush hour in central Auckland, yet here we have a crane lorry blocking the bus lane and cycleway in Pitt Street.

This isn't an emergency situations. It's pretty rich to block the space-efficient transport modes as if they don't matter.

#Motornormativity!

@brandtran.bsky.socialSep 6, 2026, 5:39 PM

I highly agree. There really are too many transit advocates that also hate bike lanes, bike share, etc. #motornormativity is wild when it affects those who don't solely drive as transportation.

Also, this is like fighting over crumbs.

@mikemckillen.bsky.socialSep 6, 2026, 3:00 PM

Or the ridiculously low FCPN fine for a driver invading a cycle track €60. #governnent baking in yet more #motornormativity into road ‘safety’.
