In predictable fashion, one new ‘no turn on red’ sign at a travel hub has completely destroyed the flow. Backups of 5+ blocks on multiple parallel streets thanks to the geniuses on the council & at DDOT. #GetToKnowYourDOT
For it to be like this on a weekend morning is insane. 🤬
Explain to me like I was in elementary school why the inner cores of cities are now designed to give priority to the mode of transportation people use the absolute least. Then tell me why govt would ENCOURAGE conflict for the most fragile way to get around. #GetToKnowYourDOT
Want to know how captured your local govt is? Check the street signs! #GetToKnowYourDOT
MoCo (MD) added bike lanes to both sides of a steep 0.3mi random road, then paid more to lecture drivers.
They later spent 💵 on “20 is plenty” hooey steps from the normal speed limit signs.
Media lackey seems fine with “traffic calming” that forces head-on collision 🐔... up until the point when drivers might swerve into the bike lane.
Don’t worry though.
It’s just a trial program.👌
Ban anyone who supports this from the public planning process. #GetToKnowYourDOT
If there was a contest to see which city’s planners are doing the most ridiculous stuff, Atlanta might be the winner. #GetToKnowYourDOT 🤡
Caught red-handed!
Bureaucrats have already inked their bike plans before the meetings. Public input is a facade.
Oh, that doom & gloom language they use? That’s a lie, too. 🤥
[Props to @Rhea_Jha_ for showing what real journalism looks like.]
#BikePeopleLie #GetToKnowYourDOT
With one lane meant for cars turning north.
Well, my wife noticed something new. Green paint (the color of the bike lanes) now juts into the crosswalk for the left turn lane! This means the DOT plans on making this traffic jam WORSE by removing a traffic lane 4/
Incrementalism is a mental disorder.
Leave it to yimby bureaucrats to push for unpopular changes to a delivery corridor after presenting data that shows 199 out of every 200 drivers there complies with speed limits.
🤑🤡👹
It’s never enough for these freaks!
#GetToKnowYourDOT
Two questions for you today:
1️⃣ Why are city planners, consultants, and #GetToKnowYourDOT staffers so bad at designing the infrastructure that they insist must be forced down our throats?
2️⃣ Why are cyclists so rarely happy with the things they lobbied for?
#FightBikeLanes 🚳
Gotta admit even I didn’t think they’d stoop to blowing millions on costly bike sheds to cannibalize parking right after they just used quotas to install 1000s of bike racks.
It was, is, and always will be about the intersection of money & anti-car policy. #GetToKnowYourDOT 🤑
This anti-car goofball is running again. #GetToKnowYourANC
Now a different ward will be forced to listen to him blather on about bikes ad nauseum even while he ducks into the subway at the first drop of rain. 🚳
Same guy “analyzes” traffic data for a living. #GetToKnowYourDOT
It doesn’t get much clearer than this.
Bike lanes are built for a vanishingly small number of people. But unelected despots like this guy do it anyway.
Gee, I wonder why they don’t collect data that would justify construction?!
#GetToKnowYourDOT
I want you to meet Rick Birt.
Rick is the head of a DC highway dept inside #GetToKnowYourDOT
Based on the bike zealot lingo he regularly uses, Rick is clearly anti-car.
Why? He was indoctrinated at 15.
Now he hands out money to orgs that uncritically do his cult’s bidding. 🤑
There are few better proofs that we now live in a Bizarro World than this:
The largest municipal TRANSPORTATION department actively lobbies against things related to TRANSPORTATION. #GetToKnowYourDOT 🧟♂️
That they use the term “car storage” shows how captured the institution is.
Look how the media gives life to this totally idiotic study that says folks would be willing to wait almost 30mins longer & pay about $5 more per trip if the bus stops were “more beautiful!”
This is how YIMBYs use bunk data to spread lies around the world. #GetToKnowYourDOT
Does DC have the most insidious #GetToKnowYourDOT in America?
Why yes, yes it does.
Only in the nation’s capital can a biz known for FAILING EVERYWHERE ELSE across almost every metric be allowed to continue operations in the name inverted goals meant to limit private car use.
OMG — the #BikeMafia is truly evil:
🔸They admit traffic ‘calming’ leads to frequent car crashes
🔸They consider each of those car crashes to be a SUCCESS 👹
🔸 Damage to worthless urbanist crap bothers their #GetToKnowYourDOT comrades, but costs incurred by neighbors doesn’t
Can someone please explain how it’s ok for these distractingly tacky “street art” special interest projects to get painted on our streets?
While you’re at it, tell me why (again) the #GetToKnowYourDOT rubber stamps the whims of 🚴 weirdos & their high-priced progressive vendors.
You wouldn’t believe how often this type of interaction occurs.
Uppity urbanist directs tantrum at DOT about an under-construction bike lane for not being ‘safe’ enough. The DOT quickly & sheepishly replies. #GetToKnowYourDOT
Then another cyclist threatens tactical terrorism.👹
Nothing to see here.
Just your run-of-the-mill highway policy official with disdain for the people she was hired to serve.
Emily loves trains, buses, and, of course, bikes. But cars? Only when she’s behind the wheel, apparently.
Totally normal stuff. #GetToKnowYourDOT
