We know that achieving the goal of zero traffic fatalities and serious injuries can’t be achieved with a “business as usual” mindset. While Vision Zero is indeed a set of strategies, it’s also fundamentally a new approach, a different framework, that starts from an acknowledgement that severe traffic crashes are preventable.

[B' Spokes: While there are some good points in here I personally think our biggest obstacle will be getting rid of the mind set that I dubbed "Since cars like to go fast, we should do everything we can so they can go faster. Slower modes, since they are so much slower will not mind going even slower." From this we get the victim blaming from police and our safety office like it is the slower modes duty not only to stay out of the way of cars but slowing them down, even for a few seconds is a crime against nature. With never a mention that it is cars duty not to hit things with their cars

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
