Replying to @Andres4NY@social.ridetrans.it
Exactly. “I reduced the insolent crowd of carriages which cumber our streets, for this luxury of speed destroys its own aim; a pedestrian makes more headway than a hundred conveyances jammed end to end along the twists and turns of the Sacred Way.” ―Memoirs of Hadrian by Marguerite Yourcenar (1903–1987) @Andres4NY@social.ridetrans.it #FuckCars

Saw a post on reddit aaking about the worst accidents people had ever seen. Realised >90% of them involved cars.

Low effort post but I found it interesting. We treat human life as irreverrantly as the aztec empire did. reddit.com/…/whats_the_craziest_freak_accident_yo… And yes I know we’re supposed to hate reddit, I just end up there sometimes nonetheless.

RE: https://tooting.ch/@BaselStadt/116962578185034166 „Der Fahrer eines schwarzen, fünftürigen Kleinwagens mit einem Kontrollschild aus Freiburg im Breisgau/DE wollte diese Kolonne überholen und befuhr dazu das Trottoir auf der rechten Seite.“ WTF #FuckCars

Living near noisy traffic could increase Parkinson’s risk, study finds https://www.euronews.com/health/2026/07/21/living-near-noisy-traffic-could-increase-parkinsons-risk-study-finds Long-term exposure to a busy road may increase the chances of developing Parkinson's disease, though a quiet side of the house could give some protection.

Ayer llevé a mi niña a la guardería en #bici Según íbamos a entrar, un coche entró a gran velocidad en la acera bloqueando el paso de peatones y frenó bruscamente. Mi hija se asustó mucho y se echó a llorar. Un hombre salió del coche con un bebé de unos 8 meses en brazos y se fue corriendo a dejarlo. Le llamé la atención pero gruñó y me ignoró. La guardería no para de decir que no se aparqué ahí, pero da igual... Sigue sucediendo y algún día habrá un susto gordo. #fuckcars @euklidiadas@masto.es

From 28th Oct 2019: SUVs named as second biggest cause of global emissions rise https://www.rac.co.uk/drive/news/motoring-news/suvs-named-as-second-biggest-cause-of-global-emissions-rise/ At that time, electricity generation was the biggest GHG emitter, since then, electricity generation has majorly decarbonised, but cars are still getting bigger and emissions are still rising... Added to which, e-cars are putting a strain on electricity grids because they are also massively oversized, and so keeping the pressure to retain fossil fuelled generation... #FuckCars #FuckAllCars
