I’m afraid that they could put up 10 pedestrian bridges but the mobility scooters, and there are a LOT of them in Detroit, would still cross at the intersection, in the middle of the block, and against the light.

I don’t know how it is where you live, but drivers in Detroit have no regard for speed limits, or really any other traditional rules of the road. In addition, pedestrians in Detroit have little regard for the traditional rules either (you know, like crossing at crosswalks). There was a big opportunity here, especially…

Then you get the punishment, simple as that. 5th isn’t a get out of trouble free card.

Should have thought about that before getting 6 speeding tickets, is what I would say about that.

To me, there are three steps that really need to be done to fix this, and none of them are governors.

In the UK the registered owner of the vehicle has to say who the driver is when they get the ticket. If they can’t or won’t say, then the ticket gets charged to them or they can be charged with obstruction.

6 speeding tickets and your ass has to ride the bus and I dont give a shit how inconvenient it might be for you.

‘...you are not an adult for the purpose of criminal prosecution until you reach the age of 17. However across the state, the minimum age for criminal prosecution is 13, meaning that the child in this case could be prosecuted by the state for their actions’

He’s a very wealthy man-so he’ll probably live until he’s 105 and use whatever designer drugs rich old people use to stay active and in the public eye until he’s 95.

“Space Trump.” I’m totally using this. 

Pretty much every pickup truck. some of them are fine your vintage low bed trucks are fine and in particular trucks that are clearly being used for actual work get a pass. Everything else though can get tossed in a hole because it’s always the same a-holes that drive them and use them in the most inconvenient way for…

Tesla by a mile. They’re probably good but I cannot separate them from Space Trump. Once he goes away I will test drive one.

Any lifted full sized truck that is not used on a farm.

A filthy rich person buying privileged unfettered access to a member of the most influential body in the judicial branch with gifts would be considered aggravated corruption in just about any democratic country.

So where is it written in the Constitution that all of society has to keep spending money so that people who choose to drive their personal car on public property in rush hour aren’t inconvenienced? We ration public infrastructure all the time, because there’s simply not enough space and money to build all the…

So, there was a bike lane pilot program in my city a few years ago. People freaked the fuck out because the lanes were going to wreak havoc on traffic and commute times.

Don’t forget though, he is from the party that chooses to be guided by faith over fact. He would likely view those scientific papers as opinion regardless of how qualified or researched they are.  

Republicans: “Joe Biden rides a bicycle. We can’t be pro bicycle!”

The Republicans are really good at making up their own self-fulfilling prophecies.

Bike lanes are stupid in some circumstances. The 1 horse town I live in recently added bike lanes. They get used so infrequently, it seems stupid to remove the turn lanes they now occupy. The only bikers in town are families riding to get some ice cream, and they usually use the sidewalk because little kids. They do ma…
