My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

(15 in Manhattan btw)

Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset the UK or Australia’s entire carbon footprint.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes.

This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com

Ég vissi ekki að það væru þættir. Þarf að horfa á þá. Mér fannst hún klárlega áhugaverð en já ég er samt ekki viss um að mér hafi þótt hún góð

Bókin eins og fólk er flest eftir Sally Rooney. Kápan er ljós-grá-græn, tiltill og nafn höfundar í hvítu letri. Á miðri kápunni er teikning af opinni sardínudós en í dósinni liggur par í faðmlög, karl og kona, hún í doppóttum hlýrabol og hann í röndóttum stuttermabol.

Var að klára þessa og veit ekki alveg hvað mér finnst

4-panel vertical comic. (1) 100 Years Ago [two people standing next to bicycle with small car nearby] PERSON 1: It’s too dangerous riding a bike with these cars around. I should get a car, too. (2) 50 Years Ago [two people between smaller car and bigger car] PERSON 2 with short hair: Small cars are less safe in collisions with larger vehicles, so I should get a bigger one.

Mikilvæg og þörf bók. Falleg, sár og mannleg. Mér fannst gott að lesa hana og kannaðist við margt eftir að hafa fylgt nákomnum ættingjum síðasta spölinn undanfarin ár. Það er ógeðslega erfitt og fátt í kerfinu sem gerir það auðveldara. Mæli með þessari bók

Separated Bike Lanes Means Safer Streets, Study Says — Streetsblog USA Cities that build protected lanes for cyclists end up with safer roads for people on bikes and people in cars and on foot, a new study of 12 large metropolises revealed Wednesday.

Another reminder that a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all.

For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them.

Part of the issue with people saying you can't cycle in winter/rain/wind/whatever is because they haven't tried and if they did they'd find out it's almost always fine but another is that we've normalised driving in unsafe conditions and, crucially, being expected to drive in unsafe conditions.

ETSC: Mutual recognition deal with U.S. will cost lives on Europe’s roads By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the United States, the European Union has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice…

This is an INSANE decision by the E.U.

“By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the U.S., the E.U. has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice that puts trade convenience ahead of saving lives.”

This will kill people.

i think about this a lot.

when we loved in bayern we didn't have a car, and would have countless interactions - both verbal and non-verbal - with people of all ages.

that does not happen while driving.

Nei, ég vil ekki vita það. Segðu mér endilega frá hugmyndum þínum, draumum, hugdettum, vitjunum, dagbókarfærslum langaömmu þinnar, hvað maran þín sagði i myrkrinu, en ég hef engan áhuga á að vita hvað random generator reiknivélin þín hefur að segja.
