Season 2, Episode 44 of Behind the Investigation with Atlanta News FirstAfter more than 20 years of litigation, Ed Heller hoped a jury would finally hold the people he believed was responsible for his wife's death this past March.Patricia Heller died in January 2003 shortly after leaving Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in a taxi while on a business trip. She never reached her final destination.According to Hapeville Police, the taxi driver crashed into a line of trees on Interstate 85; the roads were slick after a recent rain. Patricia Heller left behind her husband and two children.“I heard a knock on the door. And at the door was a police officer and the pastor of our local church,” said Heller. “They told me that she had passed away in the accident.”The taxicab driver, Abdallah Adem, pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide for driving with unsafe tires, because the cab's tires lacked sufficient tread.On March 4, a Fulton County jury found the taxicab company (which is no longer in business) liable for Patricia Heller's death, but not the driver or the city inspector.Read the full story here: https://www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2024/09/19/judge-reverses-verdict-after-juror-accused-lying-about-his-job/

Safe Streets and Roads for All is a new federal program that's supposed to help communities fix dangerous streets and reduce traffic deaths. But USA TODAY Investigative Data Reporter Austin Fast found most of the money has been awarded in more affluent counties with lower fatality rates. Plus, hundreds of millions of dollars have gone unawarded, simply because the program has not gotten enough applications. Despite that, the U.S. Department of Transportation hadn't directly encouraged hard-hit communities to apply until the past couple months, when USA TODAY began asking questions.Episode Transcript available hereAlso available at art19.com/shows/5-ThingsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

American streets killed more than 7500 pedestrians in 2023, a 40-year high and climbing every year. Why? City planner and walkable cities advocate Jeff Speck joins us to explain that street design is largely to blame and how modest changes could be made to increase safety, as has been done in European cities with dramatic results. Jeff uses traffic studies to show how urban planning can affect driver speed, traffic congestion, safety, and walkability—all of which can improve and restore our sense of community in the places we live. With wonderful examples of the many cities where Jeff has completed projects, this episode will get you thinking about your neighborhood and what changes you would like to see, be it more trees, pleasanter streets, or simply fewer deaths.
