How will that help? By some studies, about 30% of traffic on downtown city streets is drivers circulating looking for street parking. With self-driving cars, they could cause congestion by circulating all day instead of parking.

We haven’t banned cars, but my city did put a park-and-ride lot at each end of its one BRT line. It’s pretty great, now the haters get to complain that BRT is a failure because nobody rides it, AND that it’s useless because those lots are always full.

Indeed, never try to outrun a bush fire. Stand your ground, make yourself look big, and intimidate it by staring it down.

Hey, is this the 500/10 guy?

Eighty years? That’s nothing! They wrapped on the prequel in 1648, which means that it was over 260 years before they dropped the next episode. Unfortunately, the writers never gave the storyline of German national trauma a satisfactory resolution. It’s kind of lazy writing TBH, just spreading the problem to a new country, as if the people in the story were too stupid to fix it permanently.

Long-press (or long-click) on the “Home Assistant” title at the top of the sidebar. That brings up a dialog box in which you can hide the items you don’t want to see. (It’s available in user settings, too, but this is a shortcut.)

If it makes you feel better to believe that, go ahead. For my part, I think it’s a pretty obvious truth that when the government makes an open-access highway for everybody to use, everybody is going to use it, even in ways you may not like. Especially when it makes driving the fastest and most convenient way to get around. (Making driving on the highway faster than public transit requires lots of infrastructure, and was a deliberate policy choice.)

So there you have your answer as to why she’s on the highway to begin with! Anyway, good public transit would help with the traffic congestion, too.

The other drivers could also take those different roads, too, and avoid the slow driver, no?

Maybe your local government could do proper planning so that convenient and timely public transit would offer her a viable alternative to driving? Let’s not blame individuals for systemic problems.

Baby Boomers should get this, as the song came out in 1965, but it’s nice that Gen X wasn’t forgotten, for once.
