“I hate these damn bike lanes. Screw your studies. I’m not reading that”
"Cut gas taxes. I see no reason why I should pay to support public transit"
“Fuck speed limits. I’m proud to break the law”
This sense of entitlement is insane.

There is, sadly, a tradeoff between safety and efficiency. If we truly valued safety above everything, we’d ban cars altogether and return to the 1800s. But we have accepted as a society that a small number of accidents is worth the benefit of rapid transportation.
There are other places that still use cars and have way safer roads than us. We are accepting half assed safety because thats been the status quo in north america for decades.
Fair enough. We could learn quite a bit from Germany, for example.
