@AndriMagnason @itgeorgs Það er af nógu að taka. Til dæmis hefur bandaríska varnarmálaráðuneytið ekki staðist endurskoðun í næstum áratug.

Let me get this straight: the NYPD opened fire on the subway yesterday in an attempt to stop a man who evaded the $2.90 fare (?), and in the process they ended up shooting him, 2 bystanders, and another cop?

“We built cities all over America that are designed for automobiles and not designed for people... Our housing costs are high, in part because of the way that we've designed our cities."

@BragiGunnlaugss Á ensku hef ég kallað þetta "must pass bike syndrome" en annars sýnist mér þetta hrjá konur alveg eins og karla, á öllum aldurskeiðum.

Bigger, taller vehicles are more lethal. Taller front-ends increase likelihood of head or chest impact and of falling under the vehicle instead of on the hood.

We need to rein in out-of-control vehicle sizes.

Car-dependent suburban sprawl is the most publicly expensive and publicly subsidized form of human habitation in human history. And that’s before you even start the math on the big picture costs & consequences. #SuburbanSprawl

In the 1970s, Dutch cities like Amsterdam were full of traffic and air pollution.

Now they are models of sustainable urban planning.

Here's the story of how the Netherlands started building their cities for humans, not cars.
