Pedicab Restriction
Sign Now
The San Diego City Councils recent decision to restrict the access of pedicabs to the area around Petco Park during Padres baseball games and other special events is unfair and detrimental to people who are self employed as pedicab drivers.
I urge the San Diego City Council to drop the restrictions put on pedicab operators, and to give them the same access as other vehicles, both commercial and private, to the area around Petco Park during games and other special events.
Pedicabs are non-polluting, quiet, and due to their size and maneuverability can go places other vehicles may not be able to safely navigate. Because of the pedicabs unique qualities the feasibility of allowing special access to areas around Petco Park should be looked into by the San Diego City Council, as well as lifting the unfair restrictions imposed by you.

We should be encouraging, not discouraging, environmentally friendly transportation.

The City Council probably thinks pedicabs are too "ugly" to be near the wonderfulness of Corporate Welfare Park.

Pedicabs are an integral part of the 'feel' of downtown San Diego. Please allow them full access!

The ballpark was to help promote downtown business; these businesses deserve city council support also. Rescind the ban.

pedicabs are a wonderful solution to a far too congested downtown. If any thing should have restricted access, it should be privately owned vehicles.

You spend taxpayers money to keep well paid ballplayers in town. Don't prevent our pedicab opporators from continuing to earn a living in a way that adds a unique flavor to the city, disturbs no one, and does not pollute.

I have seen pedicabs in use around the world, and most recently in Charleston, SC. They are an asset and fill a much-needed transportation gap. San Diego's proposed ban is both immoral and short-sighted.
