Video: Damien, Metro’s Sotero, LAFD’s Mathis, and Times’ Bloomekatz Talk Carmageddon and the Rising Bike Movement

2:23 PM PDT on September 28, 2012

This morning, the Los Angeles Times hosted Streetsblog’s Damien Newton, Metro Spokesman Dave Sotero and the Los Angeles Fire Department’s Alicia Mathis for a conversation about Carmageddon and the rising green transportation movement in Los Angeles. The talk was hosted by the Times’ transportation writer, Ari Bloomekatz. The video takes about a half hour, and is worth a watch not just because of Streetsblog’s involvement, but because it shows how far the conversation has moved since last year.
