On Thursday, Nov 14th, I was riding home from BART. At Rose and Josephine in Berkeley, an intersection that I have always treated with care, and especially after dark, I ended up witnessing this tragedy. I saw a car hit a pedestrian (Ben I later learned).

One of the best family events happening in the East Bay! You haven't seen joy until you've seen hundreds of kids parading around town on their bikes.

Screenshot of Sophie Hahnโs Facebook post stating โI am heartbroken over the just-announced death of a pedestrian in District 5. Sending my condolences to his family and continuing my commitment to reducing injuries and fatalities on our streets.โ
We appreciate Councilmember Hahn acknowledging yesterdayโs tragic pedestrian fatality on Rose Street.
However, she has not shown a commitment to safe streets.
She was the ONLY councilmember that did not support Measure FF, which is designed to help prevent such collisions. ๐งต
