The idea of a car lobbyist sitting in on a fucking city council meeting.
You guys are like gnomes the way you talk about America.
No the car lobby doesn’t have to do anything, our own goddamn reactionaries will immediately squeal “They gonna make traffic WORSE!” despite the fact that I find our single lane freeways more efficient here because The option to choose what fucking lane they are in allows these people to make more mistakes and force more ‘brake waves’.
Well it wasn’t leveled 80 years ago.
Its not that deep. They just need to remove 2 of the three car lanes, replace em with a bike and a bus lane and the problems is solved.
I would love to hear someone propose that at a city council.
Im sure that has happened, but the car lobby has the money and money is literally the only deciding factor in US politics.

That’s the direct result of car lobbying, it has changed the perception of a whole generation on how we should build cities
American cities indeed are, after all, pedestrian oriented
