https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2016/10/18/cyclist-says-his-pool-noodle-makes-toronto-streets-safer-for-him.html Daily commutes used to be tough for Warren Huska, who cycles 18 kilometres from his home near the Beaches to his office in North York almost every day. “People get really insulated inside a vehicle,” Huska said. “They don’t really know where the edges of their vehicle are.” But, for the past year, drivers have given Huska a wider berth. Now, when he mounts his trusty two-wheeled steed, Huska is protected by a pool noodle. Strapped to his bike’s frame with bungee cords, the floppy foam cylinder is a reminder to drivers not to get too close.

yet another example of cyclists wanting preferential treatment, rather then being treated like any other vehicle. he's supposed to tie a little red flag to let people know he's carrying something that sticks off his vehicle more then 18 inches, instead of recklessly taking the law, and lane enforcement, in to his own hands.

infernal machines posted:problem: pedestrians are getting hit by cars a lot Jaywalking as an offense is understandable in a busy metropolis with hundreds of people waiting to cross but being a dick about it like Toronto in the article helps no one. US cities need to add red lines like London so they can immediately haul vehicles though, the blame is everywhere.

the toronto star decided to FOIA the TTC/city's emails relating to our rather questionably justified subway extension plan, turns out the report staff presented intentionally misrepresented the construction timelines of the competing LRT project, and no one is saying exactly why. now we have a little under 4 000 pages of emails and internal documents to sift through to try and find out infernal machines fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Oct 28, 2016 |

I saw an article about how Berlin is renovating three 1950s era subway trains, mostly to attract tourists to an underused line (but apparently it's much cheaper than buying new trains). They look cute. http://www.citylab.com/commute/2016/11/the-berlin-subway-is-bringing-back-1950s-trains/506450/?utm_source=SFFB
