The article discusses NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch's appeal for stricter enforcement of traffic laws for e-bike riders, particularly in the wake of accidents. It highlights a proposed law, Priscilla's Law, aimed at requiring e-bike registration to ensure accountability for riders caught violating laws. Additionally, it critiques breed-specific bans on dogs, arguing that such measures lack effectiveness and suggesting that focuses should shift towards responsible pet ownership. The contributions of readers to these topics highlight the demand for practical solutions that enhance community safety.
Banning pit bulls and other breeds is not the way to protect the community. Just because some places enact breed bans does not mean that they are a data-based, effective solution.
Priscilla's Law would require licensing and registration for all e-bikes, so their owners would be held accountable when caught on camera disobeying traffic laws.
Financial resources should be directed to things that actually workâmandatory dog licensing, enforced leash laws, more oversight on dog fighting.
When pets become a menace, it's the people who need to be held accountable.
