If you're looking for a way to help your community in the new year, consider volunteering with the Red Cross, you probably think a blood drives when you think of the organization, but Red Cross volunteer grant graves says they actually do a lot more than that. The number one thing we do over 60,000 times a year is respond to home fires. I'm really the only organization in the United States that does that. So when someone's in need, they don't know where they're going to sleep, their house has been burned down. God forbid they have had a loss of a loved one. We're the team that comes out to try to look at how we can facilitate them, connect them to resources. You can also volunteer at a local blood drive or even by driving that blood to the hospitals where it's needed.

I'm sure you're overwhelmed at this point, Ted trying to decipher it all. What's a kind of top priority right now for motorists? Well, right now we've been paying attention to this accident in Oakland to 8 80 northbound right near 23rd avenue in exit, it has been blocking the three left lanes. It's gotten a little bit better in the last few minutes, so I'm wondering if they're starting to open up more lanes, but still right at that accident, you will hit the brakes pretty hard, as well as the situation in South San Francisco one O one southbound right near oyster points earlier accident had the middle lanes blocked. They're still working on that one, but in both north and south directions, there's flooding, particularly in the middle lanes, so that's causing slowdowns, both directions there. One that I do want to mention though is Bart is being impacted by all this. They said there could be up to ten minute delays system wide today due to wet weather conditions. They advise you to watch your step as you're getting on the platforms and right now there is a 20 minute delay between south Hayward and Union City on the Barry S align in the various at Richmond and Daly City directions. This is due to an equipment problem on the train. So if you are taking Bart, do be aware of that being a factor.

Steven Chun is a spokesman for SFMTA, he says the agency does have a protest system in place. The reason why we encourage customers to quickly submit their protests or their citation is for us to investigate. For any discrepancies. Shaun says, as a whole, the system is working correctly, but equipment problems aren't possible, and sometimes it comes down to something as simple as an entry error. Many times when there is incorrect information like the last digit of a 9 was entered as an 8, for example, which we've seen in many cases. We're able to review it with our team. In submitting the protest, John recommends providing as much detail as possible, and there are other avenues available. It'll go through the procedure. If the customer is not satisfied with the initial decision, they have the right to an administrative hearing. Mike dewalt, there's one major change coming to the rules of the road this new year. Jim Taylor has details of the new law giving bicyclists were spaced. As a driver for the last decade, you have had to give that cyclist some space. The current requirement requires drivers to give bicyclists at least three feet of space when passing. But that is changing on the first Tim weisberg state office of traffic safety. The drivers are now required to change into another available line when possible to pass cyclists. There are more cyclists on the road and more and more their rights are being recognized. In this case, even advanced. It's part of a larger omnibus bill that has a couple other requirements, another big one is that it allows e-bike riders to use approved bicycle paths and trails, bike ways and bicycle lanes. You violate the law as a driver, you face more than $200 in fines and fees if a cyclist is injured, the total amount could be nearly a $1000.
