  • Found this concept today: Just one more turn lane and we'll fix traffic forever

  • It increases the efficiency of car traffic, not moving people. It's still good engineering from a car perspective, but terrible urban design.

  • How so? It's a total traffic killer, in more ways than one :P

  • The designer of this intersection type actually touted that island as a place where you can "beautify" the intersection with a sculpture of landscaping. Lmao

  • I mean... the second exit is usually going straight. So that makes sense. First exit would be a right turn (or left in the UK)

  • Apparently this is actually less wide compared to his original concept that served 19,000 vehicles per hour.

    21 lanes wide, however there are medians making it wider than that.

  • It honestly is quite amazing from an engineering standpoint but would be pretty immoral to build in real life

  • Overtaking and going fast in urban areas is not only dangerous, but also useless: a mathematical demonstration

  • I hate when I hit those children and my car slows like 20 miles per hour so I have to waste gas getting it back up to 70.

  • This comment provides no value to this discussion. If you want to contribute, you should explain the big deciding difference and not just expect everyone to magically know the point you are trying to make.

  • If you are fine with being circumcised, that seems like the best possible outcome and I'm glad you are happy with your body in that way. However, many people were circumcised and are not fine with it. After all, it is a choice made for them without their consent. Also, it shouldn't matter what women prefer. It should be your body, your choice. If someone wants to get circumcised later in life, that is their choice.

  • Trans people in Kansas are being ordered to surrender their drivers licenses

    Jump

  • Next step will be trying to erase trans people from being able to go outside or have a job

    Kansas, like most all of the USA is very car dependent so losing a drivers license could result in not being able to commute to a job
