A million cars have disappeared!

No surprise for those of us championing decongestion pricing for a long time. We know it works.

“It's amazing how pollution has dropped in #Paris in 15 years. @annehidalgo.bsky.social has filled the city with bike-lanes & not only has she reduced pollution by 40% but she’s also been re-elected.”
Trading car space for green space, bike space, kid space…trading pollution for people. Good trade.

Es alucinante cómo ha bajado la contaminación en París en 15 años. Anne Hidalgo lo ha llenado todo de carriles bici y no sólo ha reducido la contaminación en un 40%, sino que ha sido reelegida.

"Public investment" vs "Wasteful Subsidy." The only problem with this clever Singer cartoon is that some people might actually not get that it’s sarcastically illustrating the perception problem, NOT telling the truth. Just in case it actually needs to be said, the truth is the opposite.

Hey, remember when car and oil companies successfully lobbied governments to create car dependent cities and suburbs, and once we became almost completely car dependent, WE became the loudest, angriest champions of unhindered road space for cars, unnaturally cheap gas, and subsidized free parking?

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them.

Why 2023 was the year of the e-bike and not the self-driving car
E-bikes and self-driving cars both entered the year with momentum. Only one maintained it.
