Comment on YSK that in most countries, traffic fatalities have been falling. But in the U.S., the opposite happened. Americans die in rising numbers

Because of how so many American towns and cities are built, you’d have to bulldoze entire cities to do things like eliminate small traffic lights from residential neighborhoods.

Weird how countries manage just fine without bulldozing. What they actually do is switch up road lanes and on-street parking, and it fits just fine.

Having multiple lanes in between level intersections adds pretty much nothing to the capacity anyway, so you may as well use it for something useful.

We’re not going to tear down the entire fucking nation for some retards on bicycles.

Terminal carbrain: not realizing that getting more people on bikes means fewer cars, less traffic and a nicer trip for literally everyone, including cars.
