This gas crisis makes me really glad I live in NYC and not anywhere else in car dependent America.

Support the Austin Street Open Street
A while back I posted about how Neighbors for A Safer Austin Street had reapplied for an Open Street on Austin Street this year.
The Austin Street Open Street application has passed its first hurdle, but it can still be blocked by elected officials!
So we need all your help! Please use this link (https://actionnetwork.org/letters/support-the-austin-street-open-street-application?source=direct\_link&) to email all our elected officials asking them to support the application!

Need motivation to switch to bike full time
Please dont judge me. So my husband and I (mainly my husband) want to stop using our car and depend on bike for all types of commute. We have 2 kids and so we wanna get a cargo bike which we will be using for school and then for continuing to the office.
But I'm already stressing about everything when we will make the switch. Like I have this constant fear of cars coming up from behind too fastt. I mean we don't have great bike infrastructure in NYC and some roads have no bike lane at all. That kinda demotivates me and makes me worried about kids' safety.
My husband wants on the other hand is very persistent. He wanna buy L1 which comes with its own rear radar and alerts when a car approaches too fast. But ofcourse I cant fully trust it and you never know how effective these features are. I am not sure if it will be still safe to ride on NYC roads with kids. I know alott of parents ride on bikes with kids, so please help be more motivated.
