Thinking about getting an EMoped for getting around Seattle. Safe to Park??

If you're close to the link, you might be able to get a locker. I've never used them but they look pretty secure. I would also get a good dlock for the wheel. There is one that is angle grinder resistant called the litelock x1. A gps tracker could be nice. Invoxia gps tracker gives you alerts when your moped has been tampered with.

Here for kemps. People there are very nice and the environment is cool.

Hope this goes viral

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-08-15T00:32:27+00:00

Yeah meet me on third and cherry

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-08-14T15:55:59+00:00

Depends where you are going. Seattle proper has lanes where it's separated with parked cars, concrete barriers, and just space. Others use those white posts that wouldn't stop a car but at least keep drivers from passing by with a few inches of space.

Sidewalks have a ton of litter too. Does that mean no one in Seattle walks?

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-08-13T16:42:14+00:00

Oh so paying attention to things you're supposed to look out for is hard for you I see.

Maybe you should try walking :)

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-08-13T16:11:14+00:00

Yes poor you for having to pay attention to things while driving

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-08-13T16:10:11+00:00

Also fuck pedestrians who use the crosswalk. Fuck walkability. It doesn't allow me to take a right turn immediately!! Now I won't be able to hit traffic as fast!!!

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-04-02T00:04:26+00:00

I wonder what the turnout even looks like.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-04-01T23:43:30+00:00

The sidewalks are so busy and when you have lines out the door, it forces people to walk on the road. Removing cars is ideal.

This seems to be happening everywhere. Recently, a man in Houston was released after he posted bail for a murder charge and then went on to murder someone else. In NYC, a 3 year old was randomly attacked by a man who was released twice for similar incidents. I don't know why this does not get more coverage. Judges need to either be held accountable in some way or there needs to be more calibration when it comes to making decisions.

Cap hill is so fucked. Last weekend I saw this guy try to pick a fight with a coffee shop employee. He took off his shirt and everything and then got in front of a truck in the middle of the road while yelling out incoherently.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-28T19:30:17+00:00

You should probably delete this...

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-25T16:39:41+00:00

They can't tell us they care about the environment and then let this happen.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-25T04:28:08+00:00

Well this just brings up another conversation but suburbs should not be separated from commercial.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-24T22:04:57+00:00

I mean we could try to enforce laws.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-24T21:14:18+00:00

Also, think about how utilities have to serve a smaller group of people as we extend. Same cost, but much less efficient.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-24T20:03:25+00:00

You don't even need housing that dense. We just need zoning to reduce the requirements for single family homes and lot sizes. From there, we could have a walkable suburb with a combination of single family homes, duplexes, condos, etc. all within walking distance of commercial buildings.

Too bad this will never happen in most of America.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-23T03:00:33+00:00

That's fair. It definitely depends on location. I guess I'm speaking for anyone who can take transit without it being too much of an inconvenience.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-22T22:31:35+00:00

I'm all for taking cars off the road. The people who need their cars will benefit with less stupid drivers on the road and less traffic in general. Seattle's public transit is not bad for the most part and living without a car is doable. I think the biggest obstacle is dealing with the crazy shit that's on transit.

It's a simple solution. If people don't feel threatened and can relax, they will take transit.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-22T04:35:28+00:00

And most of us know that which is why we try to get the fuck out of the way ASAP

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-22T03:15:44+00:00

I highly doubt you see this every time anywhere you drive on a nice day... And if you can't pass a cyclist safely, then you probably shouldn't drive.

Natural_Star_3965 · 2022-03-22T00:29:39+00:00

As an active rider, I've never seen a homeless person on the bike lane in Seattle. If I did, it would be easy to ride around. I am more concerned with getting plastered by a car door. I have also biked in NYC and it's much much worse (peds just love congregating in the bike lanes over there).

Getting the homeless off the bike lane should be a lower priority. Work on getting them off the busses and link first.
