Ad Nauseam: What Are You Implying, Chase?
Welcome to town Chase. I'm super impressed you have been reading Streetsblog San Francisco and made an ad that reflects some of the knowledge you've acquired here. This is obviously a shout out to the car-free community. Might the admen understand the incredible cost savings of ditching the car for a bike, which can save you more than $9,000 every year in direct vehicle costs, not to mention the health savings from an active lifestyle and the peace of mind of contributing fewer greenhouse gases to a dangerously warming planet?

AARP Joins Campaign to Reform National Transportation Policy
AARP announced today that it will join the Transportation for America
campaign to advocate for a "broad restructuring" of national
transportation policy. In a letter sent to Congressional leaders last
week [PDF],
AARP said that it is "working to enable older adults to live
independently in their homes and communities throughout their lifespan,
and transportation is critical to maintaining the community connections
that make that possible."
