https://twitter.com/DaGeezer007/status/1638075124560670722 this kind of take comes up a lot and it's really irritating because you generally still need all of your extremities, plus your neck, plus your mental faculties, to be able to drive it's not like anyone with a broken [right] ankle or is too senile to ride a bike is going to be able to drive a car, either

In fact you can pay $20 at the courthouse to get your ticket knocked down to a lesser charge lol. I had an illegal left turn reduced to a non-moving violation when the lady at the window said I could do that

Or would they rather cross where the road crossing comes up to meet the sidewalk height and there are ample traffic slowing mechanisms

It's killing me that of all the scenarios he could dream up for his defense of trucking, he picks the one that can literally walk itself to its destination.

Í will defend lorries for delivery to stores, it's one of the few use cases where I can't figure out a better solution. Cattle cars for trains are definitely better if you have the slaughterhouse away from the farm though.

Lorries aren't the problem, the problem is the people who use the existence of lorries as an excuse to buy a huge truck that will never carry anything heavier than a pizza.

Too fuckin big to park properly because the driver can't see the meter, so he just left the rear end end hanging out into the through lane. Those things are $60K+ plus and useless as gently caress.

I'm at my company's other office, where I park in a ramp. There are 2 trucks that are obnoxiously parked in two spaces each. Just so loving RUDE and if your car is too big to park into a spot, you shouldn't be driving it! It shouldn't exist! Argleblargle!!!! Both big and expensive, both probably never used to haul a loving thing. I really want to do a gimmick TikTok/IG channel where you just interview truck owners in parking lots. Really talk them up "oh sweet, how many HP under the hood?" "Oh drat, a HEMI!?" And then wrap with "So what are you hauling?" I think so many people would short-circuit if you went down that avenue.
