The judge said the city"has a problem" with the motorized bikes and he wants drivers of unregistered and unlicensed bikes to know they can go to jail when they do harm.Traffic fatalities have been on the rise in the city. Transportation Alternatives, an advocacy group for safer streets, found that they rose 44 percent in New York City during the first three months of 2022, with pedestrians accounting for 29 of the 59 dead.

Her stage career included Broadway appearances in the Neil Simon play"Rumors" in 1988, the musical"High Society" in 1998 and the Noel Coward play"Present Laughter" in 2010. Speaking at a lectern, she described her panic when Banes failed to arrive at dinner and when she saw her comatose wife with bloody hair on life support.She described Banes as a"fierce defender of justice for everyone" with an infectious"love for life" who never shied away from heavy issues and who cried when Kamala Harris was sworn in as vice president.
