that mall had a huge sculpture in the shape of the lower 48 made out of car wreckage too. it was great. also there was a portico for pedestrians running the whole length of the storefronts that had some cool kinetic sculptures which has also been all removed to make more room for car

There was something vaguely similar in central CT not too far from where I grew up. It was apparently demolished in the early 00s as part of the "make sure there's nothing interesting in CT act" https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/4491

There really does seem to have been some kind of concerted effort to make sure there's nothing interesting in Connecticut.

CT is what happens when you let generic suburban car culture 100% completely conquer a northeast state. there's nothing there and the people who live there don't care as long as they can drive to dunkin donuts and then drive back home

NYC is actually trying to turn a lot of streets into pedestrian only area's. Not enough of course, but hey progress! Unrelated to cars being poo poo, but advertising needs to be extremely restricted compared to what it is today. e: That photo is also extremely misleading, the road in the picture on the left is still there! They did close a stretch of broadway but 7th ave is still open to cars, and that pics on the left is showing 7th ave. ate shit on live tv has issued a correction as of 18:04 on Dec 27, 2021 |

america bad. cars bad. also ppl do know that you're not always intended to make that move all in one swoop, right?? that's what the middle lane is for. and also that's getting out on the wrong entrance, you want to get out on the exit on the right. but if traffic is real bad i'd just go right and flip a U-ey at the next light/intersection (legal or not). it'd probably be a lot faster

The War on Cars had a decent episode a while back on the toxicity of car advertisements. Extreme emphasis on "freedom" and aggression, in stark contrast to the everyday reality of sitting frustrated and anxious in traffic.

i was picking something up the other day and drove on a main street in a pretty dense part of the city. i'm going at or very slightly below the speed limit the entire time, and eventually the driver of a huge pickup truck behind me starts flashing his brights and then honking at me. a few blocks later he guns it through the parking lane to get ahead and then runs a red light right in front of me. i caught up to him a few blocks later; there was too much traffic to pull that poo poo again and all of his theatrics basically just put him ten feet ahead of where he would have been otherwise. no real point to this story other than that cars bring out the absolute worst in people, and there's nothing to be done other than destroying them all and casting them into the abyss

That's me. If my car happens to get stolen in the next week I won't have rent. Things are just things, but I have to defend this thing to sustain my livelihood. It's at the front of my mind every night, I carry self defense, & I leave myself room to maneuver every time I stop. I'm flirting with homelessness & if I lose my car, I'm hosed. I'm of the situation where I'll absolutely get shot over my car & I hate it. After I wrote that, I actually looked up that a carjacking is covered by comprehensive insurance, so maybe I'm not in such a strife. However I'd imagine a lot aren't so fortunate to afford comprehensive for their car Wow such freedom, mind body spirit

Reminds me of driving in Belgium. 2-lane motorway - I'm going 120 (the speed limit) in the right lane, someone else is overtaking me at around 130 in the left lane (normal). Some guy finds this too slow, undertakes us both on the hard shoulder at 140+.
