Congress and 6th This woman was sitting right on the crosswalk in a very high pedestrian/bike area. Maybe she would have realized if she hadn't been yakking to her girlfriend.
Austin's Bad Drivers was founded to make inconsiderate drivers aware of the threat they pose to bike safety and transportation. Pictures of drivers acting irresponsibly, not paying attention, or disregarding bike lanes and crosswalks are taken on the scene with a helmet cam, posted to the site, and a sticker is sometimes placed on the driver's vehicle to alert them that they have been featured on Austin's Bad Drivers. The hope of this site is that public shame will help driver's in Austin be more responsible and courteous to bike riders and less bike-related accidents will occur.
