The latest streets and transportation news from Streetsblog NYC.

Streetsblog gets action: After our story earlier this week about how red tape at the FDNY had stalled the installation of safe e-bike battery charging stations, the agency changed its strategy (after trashing our reporting, of course).

Plus, we have more on the latest lawsuit to stop a bike lane. And more carnage on the streets.

Oh, and our editor is up to his old drug tricks in hopes of getting federal enforcement agents to stop parking in a bike lane!
