Potrebbe essere l’inizio di un film di fantscienza. Prima la buca, poi la vorsgine, poi il camion che sprofonda. Poi sprofondano le gru che dovevano recuperare il camion. Alla fine sprofonsa tutta la città!
It is at world level, according to WHO
https://www.who.int/data/gho/data/themes/topics/topic-details/GHO/road-traffic-mortality
In the linked page the same WHO states that road fatalities are the leading cause of death “for children and young adults aged 5–29 years”:

Comodo, ma non ho trovato un modo sensato per “scalare” un video senza dovermi calcolare a mano sia la risoluzione verticale che orizzontale. In altre parole manca la spunta “maniteni proporzioni”. O sbaglio?
except for the “cars are great” part.
Yeah… Excluding moron drivers you have:
- fucking dangerous for anyone outside the car
- killing millions every year
- main cause of death among those aged 15–29 years
- air pollution
- noise pollution
- one of the main sources of greenhouse emissions
- wasting space where it’s more valuable
- wasting money on subsides, directly and indirectly because of roads needed
- distorting urban growth to increase dependency on it
I’m probably still forgetting something important…
I was genuinely surprised, because what you wrote was really different from what I experienced. But my experience i Munich is objectively limited. I somehow hoped that Germany, and Munich (along with other European cities) could be used as a model of how to do things right.
What drives me mad here is the absolute inaction
Exactly, and all this stuff about counting the cars is to try to move something. I have not much hope honestly, but excluding violence and vandalism, I think this is as much as someone can do
The city even responds to requests with the risk of damage to cars (!!) instead of considering humans.
This is completely crazy. In Milan they justify bad parking by saying things like “it has always been like this” or “yeah, but you can go around it” etc. FFS, do your job!!
I don’t know… I have been there twice in the last 4 years, and I went in many places (touristy and not, I was there for work, Just as examples: Truderinger Str. or Marsstraße are not so central) and never saw anything like that. For sure I didn’t see cars parked on the bus stop or on the zebra crossings.
But anyway, with a similar car density (but people density is almost double in Milan) I am not be surprised that the situation is comparable in both places.
So, well, you should organize and count them too! I think that such a status is unacceptable independently of where it happens 🙂
I have been in Munich… Not remotely comparable.
Did you see the pictures in the article below? They are not an exception. Cars are parked like this in all Milan, on all the streets.
