[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this political in nature?[/quote] Because the cause of the problem is a series of political choices that deliberately and knowingly increased congestion. That being pro or anti-congestion is now a political issue is indeed stupid. But this is the world we now live in.[/quote] +1. The city of Alexandria is currently trying to REMOVE lanes on perpetually clogged Duke street because they think adding a bus lane and a bike lane will make the city a better place. It's absolutely asinine.[/quote] That isn't removing a lane, that is just designating it for a specific purpose. The lane is still there, people in cars just can't use it. Maybe try taking the bus?[/quote] In other words, purposefully increasing congestion as part of an effort to intentionally make things worse today in order to force people to radically restructure their lives. Blue MAGA strikes again![/quote] DP. It's pretty clear the current model doesn't work. Having people drive 5,000 pound SUVs to commute has hit it's logical end point. No one likes it, drivers least of all based on how they post. So it's time to try something else. As with anything the transition may be rough. But maybe we wouldn't be here if people drove Fiats instead of F150s.[/quote] This message brought to you by Elon Musk. [/quote]
