The oil that runs cars is not the US-produced oil, and 2/3 of our foreign oil dependency is #transportation, but it's going to be ten years before that can change, it's not like half of all trips are less than 3 miles and people could just get on #eBikes tomorrow and book it down the #stroads to the coffee drive-thru, I mean that would wake you up. #resist #fossilFuels #FuckCars

People say roundabouts are less convenient for pedestrians, but standing at a #stroads intersection traffic light for several minutes while your bus goes by across the street seems pretty inconvenient.

Biking is about as fast as driving for short trips, given decently effective bike infrastructure where you can average 15-20mph. Granted, much of the bike infrastructure is not safe or even okay at those speeds, and half the time it ends into multiple wide high-speed car lanes where you just get to pick one and call it your own. The resultant amount of time spent on politics probably works out to roughly: it would have been faster to walk (in the ditch.) #stroads #climateAction #transportation

Yes. Unfortunately I'm the only entrant in this winter #carryShitOlympics today. 48°F must be too cold 🥶 for American men and women.

#tacticalUrbanism popup #roundabouts -- when people come together in public space outside of their cars, we see the same patterns over and over. Why is this completely unlike the #SafeStreets projects proposed by #trafficEngineers? (& shelved pending $30m+ budgets 💸) It's not blinkinlights on 5-lane #stroads, it's impediments to platoons of SUVs rolling through at speed (which is exactly what the "traffic model" thinking tries to preserve at all costs.) #acab #AbolishICE #VisionZero #BanCars
