Retailers consistently overestimate how many customers arrive by car. A recent survey from Graz confirms this gap once again. #carbrain continues to distort even the most economic thinking people. @ianwalker.bsky.social @carsten-diekmann.bsky.social
In Graz wurden Gewerbetreibende gefragt, was sie glauben, mit welchem Verkehrsmittel ihre KundInnen gekommen seien.
Und sie haben das Auto (wieder einmal) massiv überschätzt.

At the heart of becoming a better neighbor is driving a car a little bit less and walking a little bit more. Actually, you don't even have to drive less. It takes very little.

Today's event was sponsored by Netflix Stranger Things: One Last Ride.
It almost was the last ride as major event sponsor, Metro (transit agency) almost zeroed out CicLAvia budget to make up for freeway widening shortfall (CA 91/I-605). Thankfully, didn't pass.
