[freak-fox0003]

I hate you cars. I hate you Ford. I hate you GMC. I hate you car centered infrastructure. I hate you highway system. I hate you prioritization of motor vehicles. I hate you jaywalking. I hate you lack of public transportation. I hate you anti public transportation propaganda. I hate you trains you have to drive to. I hate you lack of sidewalks and crosswalks. I hate you giant slabs of concrete. I hate you stroads. I hate you lack of pedestrian safety. I hate you environmental destruction. I FUCKING HATE IT HERE!!!

Dear universe, bicycles are not a nuisance. They are a perfectly valid, quiet, and rarely violent means of transportation.

Cars and trucks, on the other hand, are like the AR-15s of the freeway. Maybe, just maybe, we should take a moment and reflect on how many deaths they have caused.

Is this the Dream we were promised?

Here’s the original pic, it’s still not very nice to look at, is it?

people saying "Backpacking alone in the woods? Isn't that dangerous?" when we suburban youths spend ages 12-17 walking in places like this

…this guy giving otherwise great information just said “homo-genius” when I believe he meant to say…homogenous?

They were expecting to find some overlap. But one road came up so many times that the results, Schneider says, were “eye-popping.” Out of the 60 hot spots they identified as having a high number of deaths, seven of them were on US-19 in Pasco County alone — more than any other road in the United States. “When you add the numbers up, that’s 137 pedestrian fatalities over the entire Pasco County. That’s an incredibly high number,” Schneider says. “If an airplane crashed there and 137 people died, people would know about it,” he says.

For every 100 miles on US-19, there have been at least 34 deaths since 2017, making it the deadliest road across the state.

That scarf is pretty long, is that ideal for road work? Seems like it could get caught in smth

The scarf isn’t always on. If the site is dangerous, then the vest-coat and the scarf are usually off.

You don’t need to become a cone to hang out with them :)

They specialize in other safety stuff too, but focus a lot more on road safety because of the car infested landscape known as America 🇺🇸.

And for other wizards, I haven’t come up with any so I dunno. Their cones are enough company.

The Walk Light

Does crossing an intersection on foot have to take this long? I think we can do better. My friend Alex Zorach helped me come up with the idea for this one.

Not Just Bikes is always good for a solid dose of “fuck cars” and possibly “why do I live in the US?”. Their latest piece is particularly succinct and painful.

[the-city-in-mind]

Jason Slaughter visits Montreal in his longest video to date, and gives a balanced look at the city’s recent efforts to move forward with pedestrianization, better transit and bike infrastructure, tempered with the reality that a lot of the city is still suffering from postwar car-centric “urban renewal,” and that while the Metro and REM are impressive, surface transit is slow and very patchy outside core neighborhoods.

It is illustrative of the fact that a lot of the damage created by cars is hard to undo, and cities often end up with “islands of walkability” hemmed in between arterial roads.
