LOS ANGELES MAYOR LITTLE ANTONIO SHOULD GO BIKE RIDING MORE OFTEN

ITS GOOD FOR THE CITY:
Little Antonio's accident while riding his bike on the streets of Los Angeles shows how dangerous it is to go bike riding in LA or even walk across the street. Los Angeles just has too many cars driving on streets that werent designed for that much traffic.
What is the solution? Should the streets be widened even though it would ruin the city.
The city employees union has suggested that more tickets should given for minor infractions even though the police spend most of their time doing just that.
The real solution is a better tranportation system that includes more rail transportation. Their should be major subways down Wilshire,Santa Monica,Pico and Supelveda.
Their isnt any subways because they were blocked by powerful politicans like Zev Yaroslavsky whose Beverly Hills district didnt want Alevardo St. moving to Rodeo Dr.
The result is an antiquated outdated transportaion system that will inhibit economic growth in Los Angeles and make it harder to live in the city as Little Antonio discovered from his accident.
The positive is Little Antonio had to take break from ruining the city while he recoperated from his bike accident.
