A Bright Idea for Road Safety: Traffic Light Timing Cities that adjust stoplight cycles to emphasize safety can curb dangerous driving without racking up big costs or triggering pushback from motorists.

“Adjusting signals is the easiest thing to do to reduce speeding,” said Cheryl Stacks, the transportation manager for St. Petersburg, Florida. “You just have to find the people who have the right skills in signal timing.”

What People Get Wrong About ‘Political Will’ It’s not some innate quality -- good leaders must create it.

The status quo is what it is because of powerful interests, and, as Frederick Douglass said, change always requires struggle because “power concedes nothing without a demand.”
*The status quo is strong in Trinidad & Tobago!*

Yes! I walk slower now in Lisbon than I did in Bangkok. Not because I'm lazy—because I'm actually present. Active travel without the performance metrics feels revolutionary in a culture obsessed with optimization 🚶‍♀️

What is Active Travel (and why you don’t have to fear it) | Great Canadian Trails Blog Active travel means exploring on foot or by bike, and the level of that physical activity varies widely depending on the trip.

Whether you walk in the park or hike for a week, it’s all active travel, and it’s all accompanied by more benefits than just simple exercise.

A driver killed my parents - attitudes to speeding need to change Claire Corkery wants cultural change on road safety after her parents were killed by a speeding driver.
