And the drag your empty sofa around behind you in public era will have to end by choice as well #carsAreATrap #carsBlockTraffic #carsKill #endCarEra #bike2BFree
I'm hoping it won't be on the road for a long time, as in, ends permanently soon.

This is an individualistic take on the problem #carsAreATrap and current government doesn't really design light rail to replace cars
I also get a superior feeling when I bike thru a traffic jam. But those people are trapped in the cars and we need to offer a way out more than offer feelings
There is nothing so American as coming up with a mass transit "solution" that finds a way, for about 100x what it would cost to build a nice rail system, to make it so there are more cars on the road than drivers.... (I can't remember quote source)

Yep. Look at the pioneers of car culture. 1920s Italy. 1930s Germany. Eugenicist Americans in the early days then cold warriors after 1940s.
Now Elon for the greenwash electric future.

But we need to cook the tropics so we can drive empty sofas to the grocery store and bulk buy avocados and bananas

It's a moral panic like blaming pedestrians for traffic deaths and blaming cyclists for head injuries. The reason for the dangerous ebike/escooter patterns is always cars. The bikes have to be so big and go so fast in car environments. #CarsAreATrap #CarsBlockTraffic #EndCarEra
Moral panic about ebikes reigns and complacent daily car violence gets hidden - keep the cars crashing! #carsKill #carsBlockTraffic #carsAreATrap

Well I agree #carsAreATrap #carsKill #carsBlockTraffic and being sealed inside the sofa greenhouse distorts the world. But car freedom lies eventually have consequences that people will want to fight back against. They need to reject the auto subsidy system more than any. #bike2BFree #endCarEra

That and melting it down to transform into a transportation tool like a car or a bike

I have personal photos of cool ways to move elderly/disabled but I won't share to someone so angry who wants to personally attack me. Sorry I've offended you.
I'd be angry too if I was trapped in a car all the time.
#CarsAreATrap
Sorry for your loss. I wish you peace and a successful day.
I would ride a bike in your case and in a better world you would feel support to do that as well. We need to make it so people aren't forced to drive cars.

psst... bikes are often faster! (think about parking time)

I think you make the point that #CarsAreATrap very well.
I'm sorry it is trapping you and your family so intensely, that is rough. The solutions are indeed bikes and transit, and not putting money into cars.
But you are also correct that individually we can't do much (except bike - and that is...)
