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” -.-

ArmokGoB, in Study Finds Cyclists Are Better People Than Drivers | Jalopnik

I don’t know, the people riding bicycles over the 3 foot wide sidewalk on the bridge (which has a bike lane going each way) in my city come across as selfish assholes.

grillman: “Cities? Public transportation? That’s for poor people!”

Oh man, I fucking wish.

Aren’t bikes also required to stop at red lights?

Isoprenoid,

Yes, but you don’t need lights if there are only bikes. Lights are there to prevent heavy vehicles from colliding. If there are no heavy vehicles, then the lights aren’t needed.

SkepticalButOpenMinded, in Just Buy Everyone a Car

This is a great take down of an idea so stupid that I didn’t realize people were pushing for it. The stupid idea being replacing fixed route public transportation with government subsidized on demand rideshare.

Scrollone,

So these people actually pay money to look like giant assholes…

They don’t just look like giant asshole, the act like it ! I have seen a few here too (Gatineau/Quebec/Canada) and they love to piss off people by spewing that black stinky smoke directly in the face of bike riders and people walking around. Pisses me off that these assholes make enough money to buy these huge trucks just to piss off good people.

Showroom7561, in DOJ sues eBay for selling ‘rolling coal’ devices; fines could hit $2 billion [article]

Rolling coal is the practice of installing a tampering device to pump more diesel into a vehicle’s engine than it can handle, leading it to spew out sooty black clouds of exhaust that pollute the air.

The practice is sometimes used as a form of anti-environmental protest. Coal rollers, or the drivers who engage in the action, may intentionally target Teslas, Priuses or other electric or hybrid vehicles.

Do people decide to be this awful out of the blue? Or is some genetic defect from being inbred?

federico3,

I’m not a psychologist but it sounds a bit like en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_formation - “You want me not to pollute so I pollute even more”

You’ve never been to Alberta

Ktastic,

Out of the blue. Was driving through Norfolk a few years ago and this ford pickup decided to roll coal several times in the I-64 tunnels between Newport News and Norfolk. Dude blacked out the entire tunnel multiple times and they were clearly trying to cause a major accident. I follwed the sonofaremoved to get his plates and tried to call the highway police number but the lady on the other end refused to listen (kept pretending i was talking about normal exhaust shit) and started threatening me for reporting it.

Omega_Haxors,

“Small price to pay for the freedom to travel”

-An actual thing that’s been said to me before when I brought up other environmental issues

Lianodel, in The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, everyone 🤦

New national parking platform

…if that means what I think it means, it’s probably the worst of the lot.

Take it from an American: mandatory minimum parking will absolutely ruin your towns and cities.

PonyOfWar, in Was cyberpunk 2077 ruined by carbrain?

The whole point of Cyberpunk’s setting is that it’s a capitalist hellscape. The corpos don’t care about the environment or setting up a nice public transport network. And of course there is also the gameplay perspective, riding a train in a videogame gets very boring very quickly.

Blackmist, in The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, everyone 🤦

Poor motorists having only like 99% of infrastructure reserved for them.

So victimised right now.

Let’s take away railway sleepers so they can drive on the tracks.

queermunist, in The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, everyone 🤦
