Cars the worst part of modern cities.
People
Nah man, the people are awesome, they make it fun, friendly, interesting, and sometime crazy. Cars though. Everytime I'm waiting for a midtown bus (NYC) and traffic fills the whole block, all I can think is that all of those people would fit on the bus I'm waiting for.
If we banned, or heavily taxed every car that wasn't a taxi/rideshare or work/delivery vehicle, it'd run like clockwork. Why do we let the 45% (greater NYC) ruin it for the the 55% that don't have cars.
ETA: downvoted by a carbro, I feel validated.
Man, we do that in Singapore, and I still think we could do with less cars. Meanwhile the moans everytime the COE goes up...
Fuckin bummer dude
This won't lead to more deaths and road rage. /s Every cyclist who is hit by a car afterward is his fault.
Changing the lane before they have plans?
Goddamnit, Portland. I'm so glad I chose not to move there. I live in Salem instead, where the insanity is at least a little more removed from every day life.
Dude, Salem doesn't have any protected bike lanes.
This is the craziest take I’ve seen in years. Salem less insane in any way than Portland?
