In 2015, the City of San Diego pledged to end pedestrian traffic deaths. They've only increased. San Diego stands in a worse position today than 10 years ago
I went to the source at the city website, but it didn’t load, so I’m still not sure if this is including passengers as non-motorists. Regardless, it shows the pedestrian deaths alone and it’s a bit worse now than when they started collecting data, but it’s not reliably trending down (I could see an argument that it peaked in 2019, then generally trended downward, with a huge downward spike during the pandemic, that then returned, but I don’t think it’s significant enough to draw that conclusion just yet).
Also, the fatality rates for pedestrians fill me with dread and bile.

It dropped in 2020 by a lot. Whatever they did worked. Do more of it.
Covid happened in 2020.
I think that was the joke
In 20 years everyone will forget and people will look at all this data wondering "what happened in 2020?".
No, see, their plan is to kill all pedestrians, then there won't be any pedestrians left to die!
Why wouldn't you pledge random bullshit if no one ever holds you accountable
