Again, to continue and conclude along the lines i was speaking of before, despite the fact that the cpuc has a rule making proceeding going on, you still have jurisdiction over people who are providing illegal services in San Francisco that are, you know, the equivalent of taxi services. If you didnt have that jurisdiction, you couldnt stop somebody in their private car who was picking up on the street either. So, all the drivers in these companies which are violating the law, the drivers themselves are also violating the la...

Staff, particularly on the bicycle strategy where on the last page we were asked if we wanted to ask staff to focus on hot spots or corridors. And we dont obviously cant stay with us.

It was impressive the level of data they have and how theyre able to use it to try and increase safety on the buses. So, im wondering do we have or will we be getting that same level of data for bike and Pedestrian Safety . I know its not as easy to gather since i think a lot of those muni calls either involve the police or are 311 calls. But it would be interesting to know if that same level of data exis...
