From european perspective these streets look plenty wide to me - to fit bike lanes and parking just fine.

Maybe some of those lanes (when there is 2 lanes going to same direction) could be even made bus lanes.

What is general speed limit in roads like these in us?

This is something I have been also wondering for ages and on top of that they sit in a cabinet shielded from elements in a stable temperature.

Yet they need to speed up to make the turn 0,5 seconds before the bike passes the crossing while almost killing the bicyclist in the process.

Insane.

I basically opened the post because of the picture. It has certain atmosphere, pretty cool actually.

Now, this is a proper shitpost if I ever read one.

I’m immensely disappointed that the link wasn’t a rick-roll.

I guess this is how English and Spanish work but coming from language where the word “free” is not used in similar manner I find it somewhat funny that here we have “free zone / zona libre” and it means that the bench is locked and so many things are prohibited.

You guys have really solid points and good thinking there. I’m just wondering if we have enough bandwidth to achieve the goals ?

I propose we book a meeting with ALL the relevant stakeholders and their mother to facilitate the project pre-kick-off.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Hear hear!

Standardisation is drastically needed. It is crazy that currently the battery change can be more expensive than the whole car that is still in good condition otherwise.

(well not quite, had to add the part about the package 😉)

I have to admit that when I clicked the post I wished to see a small dog and a bunny 😉

Most what I learn from the USA nowadays is very negative and it seems that some people are totally off the rails over there.

It seems that the general quality of living is way worse than in EU.

Is the reality as bad as the news and these kinds of statements make it look like? We have higher taxes but good quality schools and healthcare is included. How is America average buying power after those?

It is very worrying that a country that often has been viewed as the lighthouse of the western culture seems to struggle so much.
