WNYC-Brian Lehrer Show-E-bike problem
Brian Lehrer who cycles and was resistant to bringing on public safety advocates to his show
brings on a policy wonk and Deliverista rep to discuss how to deal with the crisis caused
by the rampant and often lawless behavior of micromobility operators. Andrew Cuomo is heard from.
Again the problem inheres in the fact that Transportation Alternatives twisted arms and exercised
undue influence in opposing enforcement by the NYPD thereby pursuing a reckless indifference to public
safety and blowing off a responsible bike culture. NOT RATIONAL. New York has been taken for a ride.
Many of the deaths and numberless injuries and close calls could have been avoided had a responsible
approach been taken. An environmental impact study. Enforcement. This was in the words of former Brooklyn BP
Marty Markowitz "zealotry". Arrogance. Hubris. Done with sophistry arm twisting for the benefit of
real estate. Charles Komanoff -sophist in chief. Mark Gorton-ardent supporter of current Sec.
of Health Robt F. Kennedy Jr the principle funder. We the people hoist on their petard.****
