For so many, everything is black and white. They don’t understand that when we want better public transport we aren’t saying to get rid of the roads. We’re just saying that if people have more options maybe those roads won’t constantly be under construction, traffic won’t be as bad, and maybe the roads won’t have to be as big so we can build more cool stuff instead.
I saw a study once that you only need to take 20% of the cars off the road to cut congestion by half. So every person who takes public transit equates to more than one person off the road, for those still driving. Which is just to say these people should be extra grateful instead of constantly defunding it.
Motorcycling would be so much more fun with less traffic so I fully support more public transportation options. For now I mostly stick to off-road motorcycling because the chances of getting turned into road pizza by a texting driver are so much lower.
I miss bombing around on my little Indian motor scooter. I had a Bajaj Legend. It was such a rubbish scooter, but I loved it. If cars were more scarce I’d be rocking something like that. Totally car free though, these last 5 years and no regrets

That’s kinda what makes them carbrains. If they had an ideology around it that would imply some amount of thinking.
Even if I was pro-car for myself, I would love to see more public transit funding. It would take cars off the road and make my time driving nicer.

Well I mean they’re dumb, so
