Which means itβs not about disliking immigrants. Itβs about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And thatβs a bad human instinct.β

Busy urban arterial filled with cars
Bike-lanes donβt cause traffic congestion.
Car dependency, dumb land-use sprawl, too many (& bigger) cars being driven too much taking up too much space, highly subsidized driving costs, and not enough choices in how to get around, ALL cause traffic congestion.
Think about it. THATβS common sense.
First time I ended up in Fairview on the bike, I couldn't stop thinking that I had seen way better/safer infra in some 3rd world countries; it just baffles me that people could think the new DVR is worse than before the redevelopment.

Send them all to a Scottish island to redo their drivers test, at least those roads are narrow

03.12.2025 01:41 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0You're completely right, but the e-bike rules here are quite restrictive (and e-cyclists behave well here). I remember sharing trails as a pedestrian in Antwerp (Belgium) in 2019 with fast e-bikes who were going about 35km/h on narrow trails, next to slow car traffic; that was frightening.
