No, turns out if you smash the ignition barrel out of the steering column it exposes a hole the shape of a USB plug, meaning you can start the car using the cable as a key. this works in the US because immobilisers aren’t mandated so kia don’t fit them as standard.

while I would prefer banning cars entirely, a mandatory participation no-cost ride share program would alleviate at least a few of the social ills caused by cars without having to overhaul our existing infrastructure so I applaud kia and hyundai

You reduce enough traffic you'd probably come out ahead just by reducing wrecks and court costs alone. The point I'm getting at is we could do so much to improve things slightly and we're not going to

My coworker recently got basically grounded, unable to reasonably go anywhere, because she's a widow in a rural area where a car is necessary to go places. Her doctor suspected epilepsy, so her license got suspended until it was cleared up (actually a good thing). But because the infrastructure is so car focused, she just stayed home and got groceries delivered. This also means that people with actual epilepsy can't really live in rural areas without someone willing to drive them everywhere. What I'm saying is that cars are bad.

A huge annoyance of mine is when drivers suggest that everyone over a certain age should have their driver license taken away. On the one hand, I completely agree that many older people should not be allowed to drive (and many younger people too). On the other hand, it is cruel and heartless in places that are built for cars. Like, what is the actual plan? Are you going to drive Grandma to bridge club? Are you going to volunteer for Meals on Wheels? How are you going to solve the problem of millions of elderly people who are no longer able to go anywhere on their own? Instead of asking, "Why should anyone have to drive well to participate in society?" they ask, "Why should old people be allowed to participate in society? They can't even drive well."

I can't even imagine how bad it must suck being a teenager in rural areas. From 13 to 18, you're gonna want your independence, but you have to have a loving adult with you if you wanna go anywhere? That's just horrible, and part of why I never really considered leaving the city

From 13 to 18, you're gonna want your independence, but you have to have a loving adult with you if you wanna go anywhere? That's just horrible, and part of why I never really considered leaving the city My first home was in the inner city - everything was walkable and my siblings and I would walk to a massive park and go to the zoo and poo poo by ourselves constantly and I loved it and then our house burned down and my parents used the insurance money to buy out in the burbs and oh my loving god I hated it and that was also the first place I was ever hit by a car. At 14 I got a volunteer job at the closest place I could find which was a mile and a half walk away that I did and then at 16 I got a job job at a movie theater and by then crime was kind of insane so I was walking a mile and a half with a cut through some woods but half my coworkers would take pity on me and drive me because no one wanted me walking home at night alone. for the crime thing - lol i lived stones throw distance of a spot where an ex fire fighter started a meth house, blew up his meth house on purpose then shot everyone who came to help it because he hated his ex coworkers so like a few shot cops, firemen, and bystanders. I also saw more drug deals than i ever saw as a little kid in the area that was supposedly worse. There's this stupid myth that suburbs are safer for kids or that used to exist and my parents fell right into that trap.

American perception of reality is mostly formed by TV, and all long running crime shows are set in cities. The Law & Order series is basically reality according to most people. Plus no reporter wants to go out to the middle of nowhere to report on the crime there.

You may remember I had posted about Summit Avenue, the wealthiest street in St Paul MN. I was over there doing white people things and found this https://www.savesummitavenue.org/ they do at least link to the city's plan, which is i'm interested in checking out. but they want to keep the existing bike lanes, which have no protection from cars (there's a lot of bicyclists getting hit by cars on this street) actionjackson has issued a correction as of 00:04 on Mar 5, 2023 |
