It makes sense, it’s just stupidly presented.

It makes sense if you believe that cars should have absolute priority in traffic and should never never ever be in the slightest inconvenienced in order to make life easier for cyclists.

If I need 5min to read and understand a road sign which you will pass at >15km/h annd have 10sek to read it’s just bad.

It’s presented the way it is, it’s just shit infrastructure.

Someone designed this intersection and got asked where the bike paths were and they went “oh, the bikepaths, yeah, they exist… here and here and here… it’s just not on this particular slide, or any other slide I’ve brought today. It’ll totally be there on the final thing.”

Why don’t kids just bike to school anymore.

That and (in America at least) closing neighborhood schools to consolidate them into larger ones further away. They’re allegedly better because they can offer more variety of classes and amenities, but losing local schools, which serve as a focus of the community, can destroy neighborhoods. (Example: English Avenue School closing in 1995, and the surrounding neighborhood suffering a huge increase in crime shortly thereafter.)

When people without kids say they shouldn’t have to pay education tax, I tell them good schools reduces gang activity.

This is made sense pretty much right away for me. It’s like a roundabout, go around to the right until you have your exit.

Congrats. What about everyone else? There are clearly enough people here that this is confusing for it be taken seriously. Especially since this is how cyclists get killed.

Ps. Fuck cars

I suggest everyone else step up their game and learn how to read signs. It really is not a complicated sign. I thought the arrows were enough, but perhaps if the sign were written in crayon it would help.

Ps. Fuck bicycles

For a second I thought we were in the fuckcars community and I couldn’t believe you said fuck bicycles.

I hope you don’t really hate bicycles though. Wonderful mode of transit overall.

Is it not obvious? You’re not allowed to go straight from the sign is.

You have to make a right if you want to make a right, a left or continue going straight.

They probably have the lanes marked out too.

Create post

Internet as an art

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain “hmmm” and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to “hmmmm” etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won’t be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.
