[quote=Anonymous]I have terrible depth perception and can not bike safely to work ebike or no. I have taken the bus/walked for over 25 years and have a big problem w/ the way biking has evolved - trying to cross cross walks i have almost been hit twice in the past 2 days with bikes whizzing past stopped cars. After seeing too many people hit by cars in cross walks I don't walk into the cross walk unless i make eye contact w/ the cars but can't do the same w/ bikers. Buses in DC are clean and much more user friendly than the metro - but we could use more reliability and have them run more frequently - in the am they are generally pretty good but standing around for 45 minutes to wait for the bus home is ridiculous. Many times I've given up and ordered a ride share when the bus hasn't come which is expensive and no better than driving your own car[/quote]
