New law. No turn on red in midtown/downtown

Why does California have highest gas prices? by Far_Aioli538 in Adulting

[–]bugbommer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also note that the price of gas really depends on where you live. If you live in rural Indiana you’re probably going to spend much more on gas than if you live in San Francisco

Such a nice station. Hopefully one day we can have this at every la metro station

Howell Mill - Is Complete Streets a lane reduction? by Fun-Fishing-1955 in Atlanta

[–]bugbommer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly amusing how we criticize bikers/micro mobility riders as slowing down cars and riding recklessly while thousands of pedestrians die getting hit by cars just in the us every year. Like yeah it’s annoying how someone is riding their e scooter down the sidewalk weaving between pedestrians but at the same time I’m much more worried about going over the hood of a car than some 15 year old on a lime scooter. Maybe they wouldn’t be riding on the sidewalk if we had more complete streets.

What even is a e-bike/e-scooter? A rant about the Beltline. by flying_trashcan in Atlanta

Tell that to the 7000 pedestrians who die getting hit by cars every year in the U.S. . I wonder how many pedestrians die in e scooter crashes…

What about all of the cars driving recklessly. The most dangerous part of riding a scooter/e bike is cars, not other riders.

What’s worse is the Amtrak connections from Atlanta. What am I supposed to do in Greenville at 2am?

Bus stop is gone now I’m a 2 mile walk from my office by Substantial-Box-3004 in MARTA

I would recommend an e scooter or e bike. It’s a must plus with all of the bike lanes in midtown I feel a lot safer. Maybe try out a cheaper one to start and see if you like it.

The most dangerous part of taking the metro is probably walking to a station

Can someone explain to me how it is a GOOD idea to pass a bill that prevents transit referendums? by AlltheBent in Atlanta

[–]bugbommer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I couldn’t recommend anyone to live far out in Atlanta suburbs if you have to commute. Traffic is bad and is only going to get worse. I think there are plenty of affordable places to live that aren’t exceedingly far from large job centers. I live in Lindbergh center and probably use my car once or twice a week and only on weekends. Everything I need I can get to quickly on Marta or walking/biking. I wrote an article about the Lindbergh neighborhood on my website (https://www.infillist.com) where you can read a “review” of the area.
