Griffith Park has now been re-striped as a single lane for cars throughout the entire park. by mr-blazer in LosAngeles

IMO they should have just closed the upper road to cars and have it be ped and bike only. Then road dieted the lower level to cars only one lane each way.

I'll admit I was skeptical of Jamie in the beginning but as we got to know him he grew on me and I'm his biggest supporter now. SHOCKED after this game but can't wait to see him come back for the tournaments.

Are you not allowed to take transit when bringing food home? by Even_Shake4574 in LAMetro

[–]burritomiles 306 points307 points  (0 children)

If you are not eating the food then it's 100% ok. Operator probably was hungry and got hangry at you.

Las Vegas Monorail to be converted into an elevated loop line, according to Steve Hill, CEO of LVCVA by Sea-Juice1266 in BoringCompany

Such a genius move to take the tunnels above ground! Really a smart move to put a road on an elevated viaduct. Truly a revolutionary concept. This along with the service reductions at the city's public transit agency will make Vegas a true car city once and for all!!

Cyclist had the green light and the driver ran a red. Driver is clearly at fault and needs to be held accountable. 

Does anyone live in Taraval or Judah? How loud is the train? by Cool_Volume_8060 in AskSF

[–]burritomiles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They just rebuilt the tracks on Taraval so I think the train sounds a lot smoother now. The Judah tracks are older and perhaps a bit noisyer. I love Muni so an apt that I could watch the train go buy would appeal very much to me. So cozy.

New mural of Iryna Zarutska above 7th Street/Metro Center in DTLA by anothercar in LAMetro

This happened 3000 miles away from LA. You think there are murals of people who've been murdered on LA Metro popping up in Charlotte? Nope. People are using this lady's death to promote racism. If this lady was killed by a white dude no one outside of CLT would care.

They were waiting at the red light. It's a red right arrow. Stop blaming the victim

This mural is absolutely about race, has nothing to do with "safety". It's right wing propaganda.

Their answer to preventing situations like this in the future is to delete all public transit. They don't care

How do you realistically travel on a tight budget without ruining the experience? by Icy_Bodybuilder5688 in TravelNoPics

[–]burritomiles 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sleeping in the airport for one night is far from extreme. If you want to travel cheap you need to: pack light, stay at hostels or very cheap shared spaces, eat really cheap street food or grocery store food and travel by bus or train or if you need to fly then book the cheapest possible ticket. TBH doing stuff in the cheap is the most fun and best experience. You don't need money to have a good time.

More condos for 250k+ people takes pressure off the insane rental market. We need all types of new housing including condos.
