Obviously weren’t paying much attention and took it as a free holiday. Much like the attention they pay on the roads in their big SUVs.
The ACT has done a fantastic job in this field. If you’re a commuter you’ll rarely find yourself on a road, and if you do it will most likely have a permanent bike lane (no parked cars in sight)
Sure, if you’re more of an adventurous cyclist like me and do more advanced rural cycling, you might end up on some roads (eg. when riding to Queanbeyan) but even that route has a bike lane.
Shame that Adelaide, the “cycling capital” because of the Tour Down Under, has terrible bike infrastructure and timed bike lanes so people are allowed to park in them off-peak.
If you can, move back in with your parents
I know people who make 50k per month and don’t have jets. I make 30k p/m but I’ll get there one day. It’s crazy how when I was broke making $20/hour in a cafe that I thought everyone or most people are broke but now I’m making modest money it’s crazy how many other entrepreneurs are in my circle now. Just wow.
Looks like a floating point error
By putting bicycle at the start of the news article, it makes the topic about bike riders instead of the topic being about bad driving.
See the impression titles give, just by the ordering of the words:
“Bicycle riders hit by car” - cycling is dangerous and don’t belong on the road
“Car hits bicycle riders” - how sad, poor cyclists, irresponsible driver
What was the original Simpsons screenshot? I want to know what those signs originally said.
Like what
So let me get this straight you want to buy the moon with bitcoin?
It’s a duck walking on reflective water no one tells me otherwise
We all contribute to the environmental impact. We should aim to reduce emissions.
Happy birthday tux
Why the fuck are they logging a forest anyway? Go grow your own trees on a tree farm you dumb fucks. You already have thousands of acres of land for farming.
Who knows? Maybe a wealthy man might come to your town and start singing a monorail song.
I don’t know how someone can lurk without the urge to post something or comment, that must take willpower
That… is silly. Things need to move.
So you expect us to live in a virtual pod with a treadmill and grow all of our own food? And collect rainwater?
Edit: I’m not saying we shouldn’t reduce our need for freight. Growing food in your backyard (half of my yard is good production) reduces the need for freight emissions. And I cycle to work. But drive or fly on holidays, I wish we had a more reliable train network.
You can’t sleep with them because you have to work while they sleep and they work when you sleep if it’s 12 on 12 off
Ooops, I was only thinking about my own personal circumstances as a young adult who is single and new to full time employment.
Judging a person based on the group they are part of should not be encouraged, no. As generations change, perceptions change.
Our goal is to peacefully encourage more people to cycle and convince car owners to use their car for less trips when viable to do so. A lot of people own cars, would calling them Nazis really help our cause?
My vision is we make cyclists and public transit users look like responsible happy citizens and attract jealousy of those stuck in traffic.
