Yeah, I can help you with that: "removing roads completely" does not specify how many roads are to be removed, only that the ones being removed are removed completely, as opposed to partially.

"Removing all roads" on the other hand means removing all roads, as opposed to, e.g., some, or many.

There, that was easy, wasn't it?

Oh, you're basing your opinions on fact-twisting headlines of right-wing "newspapers", instead of, you know, reading the actual article where even they have to paint the picture just a liiittle bit differently.

You do understand the difference between "removing roads completely" and "removing all roads", right?

Wow, a train line goes defunct in a country that heavily subsidizes car infrastructure and actively works against other modes of transportation. I'm shocked, really. Shocked.

self-driving cars have the potential to be much safer than human-driven cars

And if car makers have extensively proven that this is, in fact, the case, they might be allowed on the streets.

(arguably, they already are)

Narrator: they weren't.

“Tesla is having more severe — and fatal — crashes than people in a normal data set,”

And I guess this normal data set is including US drivers only, who arguably are ... not that good.

it causes proponents to get overly defensive.

Uh, no. Getting "overly defensive" is your choice, and yours alone. "Look what you made me do" is really a terrible excuse for anything.

Yeah, you truly don't understand that literally billions of people live lives different than yours.

If you live in a city and you don't need a car but still have your life threatened daily by cars you will have a different perspective.

It's nice that you have no issues with bikes. That's like saying, "No I don't mind you eating while I smoke".

Gemeinsame Flächen unsicherer als getrennte Führungsformen. Fußgängerzonen besonders auffällig.

Nein! Ah was! Wer hätte das gedacht. Alles finden die raus. Alles!

Vielleicht würde es helfen, wenn wir nicht den Großteil unserer Verkehrsflächen für Autos opfern?

Schwere Unfallfolgen kaum seltener als bei anderen Unfallkonstellationen

Wä? Die 1.2% Toten im Balken bei Fuß-U sagen da etwas anderes?

13 Getötete

Von ~850 im Straßenverkehr getöteten Radfahrenden und zu Fuß Gehenden... Wer könnte bloß den Rest verursacht haben...? 🤔

Alleine schon das "überwiegend" in der Überschrift. 2553/4517. 56.5%. Scho recht, es überwiegt... 🙄

EXTRABLATT! EXTRABLATT!

Der regierende Alleinherrscher Berlins, Kai Wegner der Kleine, untersagt ab sofort jegliche Straftaten außer jene gegen jüdische Einrichtungen, damit sich die Einsatzkräfte Berlins voll und ganz der Verfolgung der Straftaten gegen jüdische Einrichtungen widmen können!

EXTRABLATT! EXTRABLATT!

Not Italian, but am there frequently and have lots of friends there:

Naturally, it depends on where you are. Some places are frequented by tourists with mobile homes, and those have a higher amount of "casual riders".

But generally speaking, Italy is... let's say not really bike friendly...

For example: At Lake Como, the SS 36 runs along its Eastern Coast. SS stands for "Strada Statale" which is the Italian name for highway, a road where only cars are allowed.

But! At some points the SS36 is the only road since Lake Como is sitting next to mountains, and they only dug a tunnel for the highway. This in turn leads to these parts being demoted from an SS to a regular road, meaning other modes of transport are allowed.

Which of course means you'll find people on road bikes, without any lights, riding in an old and badly illuminated tunnel with cars zooming past them at ~130 km/h 🤡

Lol, that sounds very much “as a black man”

You mean the „engineer“? Well, what can I say, he was insisting his professor at uni taught him „a true engineer can work with every system“.

I mean yes, but the difference is one engineer is just happily pushing around decimals, the other one goes pale when you ask what 1/5th of a gallon in cubic inches is…

Yes, it was a „election poster“ for the 1934 „elections“, and the building is the Palazzo Braschi, where the fascist party had their HQ.

The „SI“ all over the poster is Italian for yes, since the „choice“ you had in this „election“ was this: yes or no… (They were already in power at the time, so that was no real election.)

So you agree that American cars are built with only the passengers safety in mind and people don’t give a shit what happens to the other party?
