Ngowama-2013, u-Amelie Le Moullac, ibhinqa elikhutheleyo, elineminyaka engama-24 ubudala, wayeqhuba ibhayisekile yakhe eya emsebenzini xa ngequbuliso watshayiswa yilori eyayisiza. Phantse kwiminyaka emibini kamva, “ijaji laseSan Francisco lafumanisa umqhubi welori enkulu, uGilberto Alcantar, engenankathalo ngokumbetha nokubulala u-Amelie.” Usapho lwakhe lwanikwa i-$4 yezigidi ngoJanuwari 15, 2015, njengoko babesebenza negqwetha labo, uMicha Liberty. UMicha, kunye nosapho, banyanzeliswa ukuba benze izitalato zikhuseleke. UMicha kunye nosapho lakwaLe Moullac babongoza abenzi bomthetho ukuba bafune abaqhubi bezorhwebo ukuba bagqibezele uqeqesho olongezelelweyo xa besebenzisa indlela nezinye izithuthi ezincinci.
Umqhubi akazange akhankanywe ekuqaleni ngentsasa awabetha ngayo u-Amelie ngelori. Ubungqina bevidiyo bafunyanwa kamva bathunyelwa kubaphandi ngumxhasi weSan Francisco (SF) Bicycle Coalition. I-SF Bicycle Coalition ivakalise indlela ababexhalabile ngayo xa amatyala engafakwanga yiOfisi ye-DA. Akukho matyala olwaphulo-mthetho abekwe u-Alcantar; inzame yokugqibela yosapho lwakhe yokugweba yayikukufaka ityala.
Emva kokusweleka kuka-Amelie, iSan Francisco kunye neBicycle Coalition yabo babonakala bevumelana ukuba iimeko eziyingozi ezinje zinokuvela rhoqo, ingakumbi kwizixeko ezikhulu. Ngokuphuculwa okuqhubekayo kocwangciso lwesixeko, amanyathelo okhuseleko kunye nophando olucwangcisiweyo ngakumbi, izixeko kuyo yonke indawo zinokuncitshiswa kwaye ngethemba lokuba ziya kuphelisa ukungqubana kwezithuthi.
