  1. Like in Montreal...
    “Owning a car only adds to the financial stress that a lot of particularly young people feel living here. And there’s not a ton of parking. There’s a lot of snow in the winter, so you have to dig out your parking spot. Fights break out because people perceive that others are trying to take their spot from them. So the idea of having a car here doesn’t appeal to me at all.”

  2. Hoe groter de auto, hoe groter de minachting voor voetgangers en fietsers. #WarOnCars

  3. Once in a while, I am reminded by some demented creature that the United States was created for cars, not people. Yes, I know, just as I know that the U.S. has created slaughter houses, not school houses, for children. Screw you, too!

  13. I love that there's a guy with a skateboard train giving rides to people around the U of T King's College circle. Its so convivial now that the cars are removed.

  18. One of these days we’re going to just walk right into Costco like this. If they ask, I’ll mention the lack of hitching posts and water troughs. #asstodon #WarOnCars

  19. kruunusillat.fi/en/releases/kr “it is also globally exceptional as bridges of this size have not been built for the sole use of public transport, pedestrian traffic and cycling” #Helsinki #BikeTooter #transit #walkable #WarOnCars

  20. Andy Burnham and other politicians in Greater Manchester, please note.
    Unless you constrain cars you'll fail.

  21. The fact that people have accepted car deaths as being just a normal state of things is anything BUT normal. No, humans were never ever meant to die in car crashes.

  22. Nice piece on Paris's outgoing mayor, Anne Hidalgo.

    “It was a tough battle. Very tough. But I strongly believed the roads had to be pedestrianised so that people could enjoy the riverbanks, and that once they were pedestrianised and people had that experience, they wouldn’t want to go back. And that’s what has happened,” Hidalgo says.

  23. Less funding for crumbling highways, bridges, and roads. But keep driving! We won't rethink public transit or automotive dependency. We won't spend the money more wisely or make transportation more efficient. Nope, keep feeding the gas dependence to justify more oil wars!

  24. What a poignant quote from today’s Seattle Times:
    “This car is the bane of my existence. Probably the worst decision I’ve ever made, like, financially speaking.”

  25. Americans shouldn't get any sort of subsidy or relief from high gas prices when the time comes. Driving ridiculously huge SUVs and avoiding public transit should be as painful as possible.
