OTOH Running with Scissors sucks major ass
I’m pretty fucking far as anti-car sentiment goes but to think that a meaningful amount of cyclists killed via cars is people doing it intentionally is insane. You can kill a man dead in a Smart ForTwo easily but let’s not pretend the giant driving blind spots and especially the cultural messaging that goes along with HUGE ANGY TRUCK (/ CAR) doesn’t help
Braking really isn’t that hard in a car and it’s not like you lose a meaningful amount of time doing the speed limit for a podunk town. This entire argument can only begin to make sense with a lot of carbrained entitlement
There’s also the word “usually” there, and I stick by it. Nice gotcha tho.
Maybe even if it’s not a school zone there could be reasons you might want to limit car speeds that have nothing to do with revenue traps is my point
usually for the sole purpose of being a revenue generating speed trap. In fact I just looked it up and this intersection is a school zone with a 20mph speed limit.
You think maybe there’s other reasons bar revenue traps at play here then?
Honestly it probably was or maybe is a question of when until the system that produces bike gutters as “infrastructure” figures out that hey, this works just as well for pedestrians as it does for bike.
That amount is basically zilch, but we got the first idea through and it’s widely accepted so why not save some money here, too
Bicycles
I’m not proposing nobody knows about bicycles or anything but it’s sort of odd how often I come across some type of [scenario perfect for bicycle] post that asks whatever they should do
Can you hand me an example? I keep hearing this but every time somebody presents something, be it work related or not, it feels like at best it would serve as better lorem ipsum
So much shit around bicycles is a scam because barring some major inventions like shocks for mountainbikes or maybe carbon frames it’s very much a solved problem, but it doesn’t fit into a capitalist economy if everybody just buys one bicycle and then occasionally parts for it to fix it.
