Car free zones make every city and town better. There are really very few good reasons for a car to ever be in a city centre, that should be reserved for emergency services and accessibility for people with disabilities
I went to Texas to visit a friend and without a car I couldn't go anywhere. Usually I love to explore the neighborhood by foot, but roads were completely missing a place to walk
So you didn't have "freedom" in the most free state of the most free country?
Xkcd is so great at being relevant.
I saw this for the 4th time now. Any way to fix this?
Don't be subscribed to 4 different "fuck cars" communities?
I think the Lemmy devs are working on a way of reducing duplicate posts in feeds...
4th time on 'All'.
r/kutautos would like a word about this idea of the Netherlands.
huge discussion about this comic found on a Youtube community post. Go there if you want to read more after lemmy has run out of comments to read.
Since when has youtube had text/image posts? How do you even get to them? Are they a mobile only feature?
I see them in the browser at Youtube.com alongside Shorts, surveys, and YouTuber community posts.

Rules
-
Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.
-
No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.
-
Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.
-
No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.
-
No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.
-
No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.
-
No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.
Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
