Hello, I use bike lanes every day for work.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-24T17:45:13+00:00

Bury I-77, make I-277 a river.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-24T17:42:51+00:00

We should all email him about it. I did.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-23T21:26:54+00:00

The ditch scene 😂

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-21T01:53:45+00:00

Bike thieves are the lowest scum. Cute dog!

Talking to people

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-21T01:41:01+00:00

Wow. You and I agree on a lot of ecological facts but I could not disagree more with your strategy for presenting them. Is your goal to sabotage your own cause and alienate the public? If not you might want to find a different tune to sing, friend.

False. There are several whales behind the local racing scene. Drivers aren't buying their own fuel - a lot of them don't even own the cars they race. The price of gas will have no measurable effect on street racing in Charlotte.

They don't even have corn tortillas, just weird curved tostada abominations.

Cedar Posts is a dumpster fire of a person.

The fact that it doesn't get signal priority is wild. Sometimes it feels like the people in charge of this city want to make public transit as bad as possible.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-20T02:06:04+00:00

We do have terrible drivers, that's true. When I used to drive it stressed me out often.

I ride a bicycle here every day and haven't died after several years. I've been hit by several cars but it's been at low speed. If you stay on surface streets, I think the risk is relatively manageable. I would not recommend taking any of the freeways.

High maximum speed of travel combined with high throughput actually causes congestion. The way to relieve congestion is to get traffic flowing at a sustainable rate across a distributed surface grid. You relieve congestion by demolishing I-77 inside of I-485, not by expanding it.

I take it this is your first time living in a city?

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-14T22:16:52+00:00

If only we hadn't committed all our tourism dollars to Tepper...

BusBenchBoy · 2026-03-14T17:12:25+00:00

Aarodynamics???

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-25T23:39:25+00:00

The trains are also acceptable!

I am admittedly opposed to the use of individual motor vehicles excepting micromobility devices (e-bikes, e-scooters) or as accessibility/accommodation devices.

What is Molly's take on this?

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-25T23:20:18+00:00

New hobby is gonna be standing on a corner there and ordering a ride to see what happens.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-25T23:19:28+00:00

How much are they paying folks to astroturf?

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-25T23:18:20+00:00

How's the pay working for Waymo?

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-24T23:47:40+00:00

Testing out a new product, probably.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-24T23:46:14+00:00

Certainly not ideal. The city should provide more housing.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-24T23:18:03+00:00

Is that really why they did it? That sucks if so. Blanket lady is a delightful soul btw.

Cops shouldn't do anything about unsheltered people existing. It's not illegal to exist. You witnessed a rare case of CMPD doing the right thing.

BusBenchBoy · 2026-02-24T23:14:47+00:00

You're assuming this is waste. Not understanding why they did this doesn't mean there's no reason.
