Someone honked at me in the crosswalk again today, and I don't think it's because I'm really hot. Their windows were so tinted that I could only see their knuckles on the wheel. This is a sensible way for people to interact with each other.

BIG-DICK-BUTT-gently caress posted:this isn't really true for buses in the city .. they all have the schedules linked to google/apple so you know when the next one is coming, your phone tells you which bus to take and which stop to get out or transfer, it's more comfortable to travel in a bus whether there's traffic or not, and when you factor in not having to park or walk to the parking spot you come ahead on time for sure. lmao, lol. Schedules are at best a suggestion. And live tracking of transit vehicles? What is that wizardry. Here our buses and trains regularly arrive 10-20 minutes late, or sometimes 5-10 minutes early, and that's how we like it, just learn to embrace chaos as your master.

My friend's bedroom, at night. Drunk driver went completely through it, nothing left. Had they been asleep at the time I'd have been at their funerals. This is after the guardrail, a couple trees and a power pole. All designed to break-away to keep the driver safe, hurray! My ~wife~ was hit by a car while walking down a sidewalk and spent a few days in hospital plus has lingering issues. The driver pulled in to park, then suddenly accelerated into a brick wall. Literally one second away from being completely flattened or conversely, entirely unscathed. A detective contacted her later and after a few meetings said that the driver reported having a medical condition (possibly epilepsy) but also that they were a nurse and 'too busy' to be interviewed about the incident and that was the end of it. I play hockey with a goalie who has had several seizures while on the ice and who's gonna stop him from driving?

I have heard it but in the context of fast food only. In my last town there's a new starbucks going in, this was the chief complaint on the town facebook group. It's a fair complaint because there's no crosswalks within 500 feet of the location, and a cute old couple got creamed by a driver there last month. most supporters of the new starbucks said the expanded tax base might help support town infrastructure which is at least ostensibly true. there was some complete numbskull citing the traffic study as a reason it wouldn't affect traffic (which was a worthless NHTS estimate only) but that was it

Deadly Ham Sandwich posted:Where the heck do you live and where do you hear complaints like this? Essentially it's like taking the suburban euclidean zoning dream to an even shittier extreme. Instead of just making everything else shittier at the expense of keeping your own street "nice", the entire town is trying to keep its entire area as single family homes and trying to push all development into the adjacent towns. Even though the result isn't even pleasant since it means a long drive for everything, it's also kind of fundamentally lovely because from the perspective of the people doing it they're clearly also motivated by the desire to push negative externalities on other people. This is why you absolutely should not divide up municipalities so that suburban single family home owners have completely control of their own area with no consideration to overall planning. mystes has issued a correction as of 17:11 on Sep 1, 2022 |

Something about my velomobile really does short-circuit carbrain, because I get almost universal positive reactions from drivers when I'm in it vs. when I'm on a normal bicycle where cars either pretend to not see me or intentionally try to run me over for sport. I don't know if they think I'm disabled, or if they think it's actually a car of some kind.

I hear it wrt grocery stores and apartment buildings. People generally seem excited about fast food; they blame other drivers for the traffic backups.

Had a good ride the other day My sister in law is wanting to modeshift her grocery shopping So I found a $25 second hand cruiser. Rode 10 km to pick it up, then rode 10km doubling the purchased bike and have spent the last week doing it up New tyres and grease, a quick clean of the chain and gears and it rides like a dream I added the trunk in the back, I have the same system on my bike and it's been great for groceries for the last year  Bicycle advocacy!

I am keeping an eye out for second hand tandem bikes After having my converted cruiser cum cargo bike I want to make a convertible cargo/tandem hailer Like putting some foldable pedals on it and a foldaway cargo flatbed Since I genuinely use my bike as my primary transport being able to confidently carry a second person and/or 50/100 kg of cargo As long as I can hit a comfy 20km an hour and have some super low gears I can deal with most anything Most of my friends ride bikes and I live near a two major bikeways, would be sick to take care of my shopping, then ride to a mates place, and then we ride together to a movie theatre or w/e. Or to pick up my partner after a night out in the city So just keeping my eyes on the classifeds
