    I would really like there to be automatic door opening systems with door locking when an object enters a defined approach space.

    In truth, I would really like there to be no more cars at all…

    If you are on a bike share bike, just brake slow enough to hit door. Bike will be fine, door will be fucked, and it will be their fault.

    LA needs to get with the program, Seattle is installing concrete barriers to separate cars from bike lanes because as the video shows, car drivers don’t give a fuck

    I had a bike commute in LA where the same truck passed me every morning and swerved into me. Lots of undiagnosed mentally ill people on the roads.

    The parking lane is too small for the truck, so the truck is in the bike lane.

    Should the truck drive up on the curb to avoid the bike lane or should the truck have enough room to exist fully away from the bike lane?

    Urban planning intensifies

        How do we move stuff? Toss your washer and dryer on top of your Tesla? Contractors load up big trucks daily, filled to the brim with siding, garage doors, electric supplies, you name it. It is a standard. The only people not following it are the city. Those trucks are as wide as they’ve been for 30 years. Those bike lanes have only been there for two or three if the paint is anything to go by. What’s the hold up? I guess nobody at City Hall has a proper tape measure.

        Cool, double standards are ok if it’s someone else’s problem. You sure you’re so far removed from a conservative?

    Hypothetically, if you were intending to break a wing mirror to save someone’s life… Punch down, pops right off. Hypothetically, armoured gloves would be best for this, which would protect you’re hands in the event of a crash.

    I just see a button that says “watch on loops”

    And when I click it, nothing happens
