This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice.

Our new study shows where this bias comes from AND how it makes people think they're odd for supporting changes to the transport system 🧵

Mariyung/D-set first thoughts

- very nice, feels like a modern train
- smooth ride, barely any noise and don’t feel many bumps (caveat I only went from central - Epping so could be bumpier)
- all the little things are good - tray tables are nice and strong, little hooks for bags
- bike storage 👍

Bye bye v-sets 👋👋

Little hooks! How nice

On the mariyung rn this is so crazy. Only took 5 years

Before & After: I don’t think people realize the extent to which parked cars degrade public space.
