@notjustbikes Řízení auta bylo svého času sport. Motoring. Když se mi nechce řídit, tak si říkám že provádím motoring. Jako ve dvacátých letech.

@notjustbikes Also, for the time being, you might want to avoid travelling to SF, LA and Phoenix.

I don't think Waymo will be too happy about this one...

I don't know where anyone got the idea that anyone thinks autonomous cars will solve traffic problems.

@notjustbikes loved this!

We were in Taiwan and Qingdao around the same time you were in Japan. TW platforms (metro and HSR) all have queue markings that people obeyed with almost no exceptions. In contrast, on the mainland (and back here in Vienna) people would frequently stand in front of train doors and block exiting passengers.

We debated whether this was habituation to the markings; to queuing generally; or a deeper cultural disposition maybe dating back to Japanese rule.

@notjustbikes Hi from Nagoya, the fly-past city on the way to Kyoto, which you must also have visited? I earlier offered to liaise with city planning offices in one of the ten or twenty million comments that I assume you read in detail, having nothing better to do with your time 😳, sorry I couldn't be of service. Hope you had an enjoyable and productive visit!

@notjustbikes maybe i'm just losing it, but i totally lost it at 2047.

@notjustbikes Also in the Netherlands, they politely label their trap stairways.

@notjustbikes wow, that’s amazing 🤩

@notjustbikes Next is the train carrying Ostrogoths and Visigoths

@notjustbikes - just watched this, well done Jason. You're riled up in this one, and rightfully so. The only thing I thought was missing was how the additional weight of these vehicles may also cause older multi-storey car parks to become structurally unsound. I think the story came up in the UK Daily Mail spinning it to put the blame on heavier EVs, but by the same logic, it would follow SUVs would be even worse.

@notjustbikes I’ve been seeing lots of pickup trucks around London (the real one) lately where there seemed to be very few of them a couple of years ago. They’re hideous.

@notjustbikes I generally despise the fact that North American cities are designed around cars. After you've lived in a city with decent public transit, car centered cities feel downright barbaric.
