Our land use patterns give you car brain. You can live farther and farther away from where you need to be exactly because policymakers are all afflicted with car brain. Instead of building up, more efficiently, we build farther and farther out, requiring the use of a car to ‘get more space for the same dollar.’ This…

Clearly you haven’t been in the last 10 years.  Much friendlier city now. 

“Cars aren’t the only thing that crash.”

“cause of crashes: cars.”

I know... with shops closer than 15-20 minutes away like the far remote corner of the mall parking lot/garage.  Put them right next to the food court or the entrance to some stores.  I’d much rather walk around (and maybe spend money) than sit in the car.

A lot of people just coming out of college expect to have mid-career job titles and salaries.  It’s crazy.

Don’t forget Tesla had counted on mountains of taxpayer backed loans to get started.

Have my EV for 2 years now. Loving it.

Gotta assume this means Polestar is the next announcement.

Higher hoods decrease visibility = increase risk of hitting a pedestrian.

Meanwhile the Greek coast guard let a migrant ship sink, killing hundreds of souls.

The T now requires redundant elevators so that only one functions at any one time.

That’s the result when you don’t actually want to accomplish anything.

Late 90s/ early aughts we’re the pinnacle of functional, ergonomic automotive design.

Honestly, grocery-getting and running to soccer practice shouldn’t *require* a car.
