@cestvrai @Naich The Cult of The Sacred Driving Licence https://kimharding.net/blog/the-sacred-driving-licence/
Nothing changes...
@Meowoem @mondoman712 All the more reason to clamp down on cars, which really do limit people's freedom to travel, especially those who don't use cars.
For those how have experienced travelling in places with high quality public transport and active travel infrastructure, the freedom from motorised congestion IS a real vote winner. Hardly anyone wants to go back to the noise, congestion & pollution of the car... Only those who have never experienced real freedom, think it is the car
@Moonrise2473 @mondoman712 you can have locked boxes on cargo bikes... It ain't rocket science
@gowan Really? Or has it just been misinterpreted?
@frankPodmore That rather depends on whether your objective is to deter beach sitting or not. Of course, if the real objective is to protect life and health, the place to start is removing the source of harm π
@gowan @frankPodmore Why aren't helmets mandatory in cars? If it saves just one life surely it would be worth it?
@tryptaminev @mondoman712 How very true, not to mention the particulate air pollution which comes from vehicle tyres
