@FuckCarsReddit We have them in parks in Kalamazoo.

@natalia_barbour Is any form of transportation more tracked, controlled, and regulated by the state than the automobile? Walkable cities are true freedom.

[Dan @dzbair]

Getting good ideas for the Kalamazoo, Michigan Ave 2-way conversion. Calmed traffic and nice density in Short North neighborhood, Columbus, OH.

[Dan @dzbair]

Columbus I670 makes Goodale Park very loud and unpleasant. Seems like a prime candidate for highway removal.

@tom_the_rooster @radlobby Their kids didn’t have problems sharing the streets with cars, so maybe we’d better teach our kids better.

We got this nonsense from neighbors when we were planning our permanent neighborhood play street.

Michigan roads are deteriorating faster than they're being fixed. We don't spend enough & don't have enough funding to repair them all. Meanwhile the state keeps widening highways to satisfy suburban commuters. Its a race to the bottom in need of alternative transit solutions.

@sociallychrissy @EngineerDustin We haven’t tried it yet. My trust in Amtrak is low.

[Dan @dzbair]

@coreyjrowe Also, give me a car with no screens, and physical dials.

@GamblerJohn561 @EngineerDustin If I have a farm, producing anything, I need a population center nearby to have a viable business.

@jasoncoxnc denser urban areas not reliant on cars mean more green space, farm land, hunting land, and wildlife.

Good Lord! We are seriously messed up here in North America. This is even WORSE than I thought it would be.
