Truck Side Guards are being implemented at state levels throughout the US and Canada.
Massachusetts and other states near rules for side underride guards and other safety equipment. Massachusetts - a transportation safety bill headed to the Massachusetts governor’s desk includes a mandate for side underride guards for certain trucks. Since 2015, the city of Boston required side guards on all city-contracted vehicles over 10,000 pounds, or tractor-trailers with a combined weight of over 26,000 pounds. The new bill affects trucks owned or leased by the state. Other cities to adopt mandates for city trucks include Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation Volpe Center. Pennsylvania A Pennsylvania House bill would require certain commercial trucks and trailers throughout the state to use side underride systems. The bill, HB2476, would require that large trucks and their trailers come equipped with the underride systems. New Jersey A New Jersey bill would require commercial vehicles registered in the state to be equipped with underride systems. Sponsored by Assemblywoman Britnee Timberlake, D-East Orange, A3205 would require trucks to be equipped with an underride system consisting of devices installed on the front, rear, and sides.

eBikes - stay safe - everyone will benefit.
E-bikes are an increasingly popular form of transportation in NYC, but they take some getting used to. We're launching "Get Smart Before You Start," a new multi-platform marketing campaign to educate New Yorkers on how to safely operate an e-bike. More: http://nyc.gov/ebikes This campaign is just part of our $280M Vision Zero expense budget for next fiscal year. In 2023, we installed nearly 32 miles of protected bike lanes & the first “double-wide” lanes. We recently launched a 6-month pilot program to test public e-bike charging for delivery workers. [Video description: An animated video shows an icon of a person on an e-bike rides through various scenarios that a cyclist might encounter, such as needing to break.
