Norman Steisel Wants to Get Rid of This

April 11, 2011

“We’re not opposed to bike lanes. We’re opposed to this one and the way it was done,” said Norman Steisel, a former deputy mayor in the Dinkins administration, who believes the path creates more danger for all parties.  “You have to be concerned about all who use it, and that includes drivers, pedestrians and the bicyclists.”

The Neighbors for Better Bike Lanes member was quoted in the New York Post one day after hundreds of kids rode the bike lane he’s suing to remove.

If you want to see how concerned you should be for all who use it, please watch this excellent Streetfilm.

    C’mon. I need to see the food delivery guy going the wrong way downhill on a one-way street at twilight. C’mon. Fair and Balanced, eh?

    The great thing about the Steez is that he doesn’t even live on PPW. He just wants to be able to drive 45 on the four blocks of PPW he needs to navigate on his way home from the Hamptons.

    Maybe he’s cranky because the prostitutes are farther away now?
