The investigation was delayed by the #shutdown, with at least one specialist stuck in a long #TSA line, a #transportation safety official said.
#Trump #Transportation Secy Sean Duffy warned Friday the government could force airlines to cut up to 20% of #flights if the #shutdown did not end as US airlines on Friday scrambled to make unprecedented #GovernmentImposed reductions.

In a State With #School #Vouchers For All, Low-Income Families Aren’t Choosing to Use Them
—
Working-class parents often express interest in vouchers. But in #Arizona, the nation’s school choice capital, these families aren’t using them due to the inaccessibility of private schools and the costs of #transportation, meals and uniforms.

Safe, less systemically expensive, more efficient than induction wireless power transfer; I've invested over 40 years attempting to cultivate support for mundane application of beamed power instead of launching rockets, powering surveillance drones, or satellite solar power mega projects.
I have repeatedly been humiliated in public by white electric vehicle advocates, supremacist sycophants dedicated to the Oligarch status quo, ready to trade Oil Barons for Battery Barons, the new boss same as the old boss.
I have a fun, evidenced-based, economically and environmentally sustainable proof of concept project for Smart-Grid to Smart-Road (including Silviculture, Agroforestry, Motorsports) that I am working on alone.
Join me if you can prove you're not another cynical, glad-handing frenemy, competitor, predator seeking to win my trust and sabotage the work.

This is probably fine, right? @ProPublica reports on how Trump's transportation department plans to use Google Gemini to draft regulations. The agency's remit includes practically all transportation safety. "We don’t need the perfect rule on XYZ. We don’t even need a very good rule on XYZ," said Department of Transportation general counsel Gregory Zerzan in a meeting. "We want good enough."

Tesla avoids California sales ban by removing ‘autopilot’ from marketing
Tesla will avoid a 30-day suspension of its dealer and manufacturer licenses in California, its biggest market, after the US electric vehicle maker stopped using the term “autopilot” in the marketing of its vehicles in the state.
Tesla now uses the term “supervised”

Tucked away in the woodlands of Pennsylvania lies a unique fleet of streamlined 1930s and 1950s streetcars. These St Louis and Pullman-Standard carriages have glorious vintage Americana vibes.
Many of these date to the height of the Streamline Moderne era. At this time, streamlined aerodynamic forms replaced the geometric shapes and excessive ornamentation of the earlier Art Deco style.

Spotted the new light rail on the I-90 floating bridge over Lake Washington heading to Bellevue recently; it's called the East Link Light Rail, connecting Seattle to the Redmond Technical Center, operated by Sound Transit.
The snow covered Mount Rainier / Tahoma provided an awesome backdrop to this picturesque scene in the early evening.

After providing introductory bike-friendly drivers training today—to all youth at the Monterey County Probation Department Youth Center—we made our typical rounds in our county’s seat and largest city. Today that included Acosta Plaza and two local bike shops on our route.
We also stopped to snap photos of some of our favorite infrastructure (short of bikeways with a physical barrier): Bike boxes at intersections, like this one on West Alisal Street at Lincoln Avenue, Salinas.

In the 2010s, we were told new tech would revolutionize transportation.
As BMW faces backlash for sticking a Spider-Man ad on its center console, we can see what it really amounted to: cars that collect vast quantities of data on us and which automakers are desperate to use to push ads on us too.
