Der #ADAC betreibt hier Täterschutz und Opferverunglimpfung.

Nicht langsame Fahrzeuge sind eine Gefahr, sondern zu schnelle unaufmerksame Fahrzeugführer, die alles von der Straße rammen, was nicht niet- und nagelfest ist. Vorrausschauende Fahrweise? Geschenkt!

Wir erleben solche haarsträubenden Situation regelmäßig auch auf dem Fahrrad innerorts, wie außerorts.

Mülleimer sind an den Picknickplätzen der Autoinfrastuktur eine Selbstverständlichkeit.

US lawmakers push to suspend federal gas tax as fuel prices rise

As gas prices approach $4 a gallon nationally amid the conflict in Iran, some lawmakers are pushing to suspend the federal gasoline tax. Lawmakers say the action would provide much-needed relief for families and businesses that rely on their cars and trucks to get around. President Donald Trump said he has “thought about” suspending it, but suggested that states should consider suspending their fuel taxes. Following is a look at what a gas tax holiday is and how it would work for consumers and American roads and highways.

Privatize roads, then. Not a single road makes a profit. There should be a feedback loop that if roads aren't profitable, then we shouldn't be subsidizing the roads on behalf of the automotive industry. /s

We need public goods and public services that only work at economies of scale.

My polling place didn't have a bike rack or anywhere to secure a bike. Because cyclists I guess aren't voters.
