Waymo privatized another public street:
Chanel approaching 4th, San Francisco
Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away.
The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined.

A sad day for cyclists. Bill 60 - which prohibits the conversion of motor vehicle lanes to bike lanes (or any other prescribed purpose) - has passed Third Reading this morning which will kill various cycling projects in Toronto & across Ontario. #shame #BikeTO #BikeSky #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero

NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

we need to put to rest the idea that the mass suburbanization of the US was inevitably natural, and admit that americans only seek out this lifestyle because the US has heavily subsidized it over the last century to attainability for a sizeable population, to the benefit of certain industries.
Right, this is true, but the OVERWHELMING evidence of the past 100 years of American life is that vastly more people want space and a car than a smaller unit and a car-free lifestyle. This is mostly why the suburban share of US population has grown relentlessly for the entire 20th and 21st century
Some people put a premium on space in my experience, others put a premium on not having to have a car and not being isolated out in the suburbs

If suburban/exurban car dependent life is truly so overwhelmingly preferred, how come that built environment needs to be legally mandated in like 98% of the country? Why is space in dense walkable areas in such high demand relative to its supply if it’s so obviously inferior to most people?

If the Federal government had invested in commuter rail instead of highways, the prestigious middle class way to commute to the office would have remained a short walk to the station, from housing necessarily denser than SFHs.
This is just you revealing your preference now, not history.

I don't like how the word "nuanced" became synonymous with "finding a middle ground" between "extremes"
it's possible to have a nuanced opinion, and yet also firmly stand within one of the extremes
