Why do people even drive in the curb lane on #stroads? I think maybe it's the highway / freeway mentality of staying out of the "passing lane", but then the #honky assholes never seem to conform to that anyway. Would there be less honking if I just bike in the left lane? How about make this a bus lane gov 🙃 #WithDemsLikeThese #orPol #defundDOTs #ODOTGTFOpdx

Congratulations to the "bike lanes are not the most important thing in Portland" people for not getting what they want while shouting down the mayor and ensuring that car lanes remain the most important thing in Portland 🙄 I'm sure they all had a nice drive home. #transportation #orPol #BanCars #DefundDOTs #ACAB #ClimateDenial

Is it possible to "fund safety" in #transportation if you can't first move the default away from the idea that "austerity" means maintaining five car lanes with no bike lanes or sidewalks? Those car lanes aren't free to maintain, let alone with $3M in stop light hardware at every intersection, but an agency with ~$4B annual budget can't change it without more money? The gas tax is bringing less per-mile revenue than it costs to keep all of this as-is, that's the whole problem. #defundDOTs

The riding-your-bike-somewhere to firing-traffic-engineers pipeline is so very fucking short, I know people aren't riding their bikes enough. #FuckCars #BanCars #trafficEngineering #defundDOTs #BikeTooter

Yep! I live in Koreatown and at first I was annoyed by the bikes, but when I was still recovering from a broken foot, I tried those rental Metro bikes and was like, "Oh hell no to riding on Wilshire..." I do wish people would ring their bell more, it's not rude.

weird how this comes out as an ad for the paving company's stock rather than a chance to cut $70B/yr in wasteful government spending #FuckCars #defundDOTs #NoMoreFreeways
