018118055, in What modes of transport do you really like?

Bike, own escooter (arrive without needing a shower), trams, trains. Buses make me motion sick if I do anything other than stare out of the window.

The automobile

captainlezbian, in What modes of transport do you really like?

Bikes and trains. Love my exercise but my area is cold half the year, and trains are just absolute goat

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Getting from A to B in the metro and never stepping outside in -30 is awesome.

Days when I work downtown I take my coat off at my home metro station, and put it back on at my home metro station.

shiveyarbles, in Vehicles with higher, more vertical front ends pose greater risk to pedestrians

Ok I’m gonna need a list of car models to not get run over by

BossDj,

Ohhhh So the title of the article was directed towards pedestrians, not car murder enthusiasts

shiveyarbles,

Well everyone should have a hobby

Rascabin, in /c/fuck_weapons

The only thing that sticks out to me is i thought it says Odin Laundry. Cool if it were true.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Clean clothes, but shit depth perception.

Is the guy with the flag fucking SMILING?

SLaSZT, (edited ) in EPA sides with tribes on petition to regulate toxic tire chemical that kills salmon
@SLaSZT@kbin.social avatar

Any premature prohibition on the use of 6PPD in tires would be detrimental to public safety and the national economy.

...What about the safety of my body? Or the health of children and animals? It's not as if tire waste dumped into the ocean just stays in the US, this could be affecting Canada and Central America too, as well as other places.

I don't understand how a manufacturer's consortium can basically be like, "we don't want to spend the money to find a new chemical that works similarly on short notice, so we're just going to lobby to poison you indefinitely."

Time to buy SUVs :)

MrFlamey,

Dude, you misspelled “burn”

BorgDrone, in Our children are victims of road violence. We need to talk about the deadly norms of car use

How about starting with proper driving lessons and tests and not letting children drive 1+ ton death machines?

Also regular tests for people who have been driving to ensure they understand the changes in driving laws and to reinforce safety guidance.

PlasterAnalyst,

I haven't had to take a driving test in over 20 years. Only once I had to take a multiple choice test on the meaning of various signs and you get three chances to pass it. It's absolutely absurd that they allow people to get their license at 16 and rarely have to retake a driving test.

squaresinger, in Atlanta 1950s and now

Sure the designers of this monstrosity thought, “There are only black people living there, so it’s a win-win” -.-

Mr_Blott, in What if We Had the Right to Public Transport?

We do

What you on about?

mondoman712,

Did you read the article?

Mr_Blott,

Your headline suggests something that is patently false. I have the right to public transport and I have it

Or do you mean a very specific “we”?

mondoman712,

Where do you live?

SpaceNoodle,

Ah, the classic “fuck you, got mine.”

Nouveau_Burnswick,

The “we” would be everyone who is not the “37 per cent of urban areas globally, and just 52 per cent of the urban population, [who] have convenient access to public transport.”

BoringHusband, in Gen Z is choosing not to drive

Horses.

diskmaster23, in Can Cleveland go from urban decay to transit Haven?

They can, but probably won’t.

Mattcaff,

Yeah… there’s certainly some progress in the works and the mayor in particular seems to get it. But I wouldn’t bet on Cleveland becoming Amsterdam either.

xmunk, in Why are cars getting bigger? A theory.

It’s comfort, primarily… Americans are big and bigger cars are more comfortable if you’re less flexible.
