wocomoDOCS | Los Angeles is a dangerous city to bike in, but is slowly making room for cyclist safety @wocomodocs | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
For Los Angeles natives living in the early 1900's, bicycles and streetcars shared the road as our primary modes of transportation. But the arrival of the freeway effectively wiped them out.
