Yep, Pete Buttplug is now claiming that not only are roads, cars, traffic control devices, but even auto accidents are racist!
“it is a matter that deserves increased attention, and I am actively working to raise awareness about it. The crisis of roadway fatalities in the United States is staggering, with approximately 40,000 lives lost each year.”
Following that, he adds, this is a number comparable to gun violence. Moreover, there are significant racial disparities. These disparities are with Black and Brown Americans, tribal citizens, and rural residents being at higher risk of losing their lives as drivers or pedestrians.
Furthermore, discrimination plays a role in this issue, including the design and construction of roads, access to safe street designs with crosswalks and proper lighting, and disparities in access to such infrastructure. “As a society, we have a responsibility to take action to address these disparities.”
