#Carbrain
This is the selfish carbrain attitude that leaves a vacuum open for Flock to exploit.

First, ban cars so people don't give up liberty to walk safely in public. But second, your concern about tracking deadly machines doesn't extend to libraries tracking books or transit agencies tracking humans.

I appreciate that this combines my two favourite gripes, carbrain and the shortage of public washrooms

If it's a carbrain online, I like to drop this link cyclingfallacies.org/en/8/the-wea...

But for real, I do think the answer is how much most humans are steeped in carbrain. There is no consistency or logic behind it. It's all lizard brain shit.

another carbrain pretending to care about poor people when it comes to subsidizing gas (used overwhelmingly by the rich)

who has effectively never posted about transit, and absolutely never posted about transit fares which cost poor people far more per trip than gas costs drivers

I had just learned of Peter Gleick three weeks ago as a carbrain opponent of bike lanes in California. Then as an active NIMBY. But then, I saw serious defenses of him as a climate scientist.

So I tried to reconcile them. Can't. There is a harmful tension.

86yr old killed a pedestrian, still driving a truck now.

Carbrain in my mentions said traffic deaths are accidents absent intent. All that means is drivers and traffic "engineers" think victims are beneath consideration.

They say car dependency. I say my family and I depend on not being murdered.
A sad but predictable story out of Michigan. Suburban voters refuse to fund legitimate mass transit options, which leads to 85 and 95 (!) year olds driving and eventually hitting and killing pedestrians.

Jaywalking laws are human rights affronts.

which is ofc to be predicted; connie chan has made it abundantly clear over 6 years that she will not represent anyone other than carbrain homeowners who want more parking, get triggered by bike and BRT lanes, and think they shouldn't have to go to jail when they annihilate families with their cars

oh I'd prefer him issuing fines and adding points on licenses, I'm sick of the carbrain version of gun nuts thinking any enforcement is bad while they kill 40k people a year with their weapon of choice

I'm only saying police shouldn't be in charge of low level enforcement, they're bad at it

The idea that this could be avoided by not speeding doesn't occur to this motorist or the Indo. #CarBrain

Cyclists here are so aggressive… I shall become the world’s first carbrain without a driver’s license

Local promoter is planning a parkingless 80 apartment building rigth downtown, on main tranasit lines and most needs accessible with 15 mn walk, including many carshare station and the bus terminal

Car brain forum: impossible to live ! hell ! whatabout (add the usuals)
Carbrain is a hard drug.

I believe the term for it is carbrain.

On bike lanes: I was expecting a bunch of carbrain talking points, but discussion was surprisingly sane. I think most of them just don't ever cycle. Just a single call for licensing cyclists, and one call to have drivers pay more attention

Carbrain is real and drivers lose their perception of other people's humanity. Was biking on Telegraph the other day and a car almost turned right right into me (I realied they weren't stopping so I turned and stopped.) They just ... kept driving like I wasn't even there

Mit freundlichen Grüßen, ihre 🦖🦕🦖 von CDU und SPD. GaLiGrü gehen außerdem raus an die Lobbyisten für fossile Brennstoffe mit #CarBrain.
Sadfact: Alle 3 Tankrabatte der letzten Jahre kosten den Staatshaushalt 7,5 Mrd. Euro

Zum Vergleich: Das Deutschlandticket kostet den Bund jährlich 1,5 Mrd. Euro.

Bedeutet: Für 8 Monate paar Cent billiger Tanke könnte der Bund das Deutschlandticket sage und schreibe 5 Jahre lang finanzieren🤯

i’m not trying to call her a name rn tbc but im seeing a mute for “Carbrain” so maybe normal urban policy stuff, she also has me blocked which is fair as I’ve been a real bitch on here sometimes

Concluding that the problem here is people eating outside and not people DRIVING CARS INTO PEOPLE EATING OUTSIDE is peak #carbrain
After a 93-year-old driver drove through a group of people eating brunch at "Meg's Diner", a Republican state assembly rep is promising to fast-track a bill for new regulations on outdoor dining... www.nj.com/news/2026/09...
Deadly crash at Jersey Shore restaurant puts outdoor dining safety in spotlight
A new bill would require barriers at any New Jersey restaurant dining next to an active roadway.

so NJDOT and its carbrain "engineers" is going to lose jurisdiction over any roads near restaurants with outdoor seating, right?
