> How often do collisions with pedestrians occur at 50 km/h?"Enough to kill several dozen people every year in my city and severely injure over a hundred, according to official statistics.
> it surprises me you're so against something you've never tried
I have plenty of experience with what it is like to walk and cycle in busy streets, and I do not wish to force that upon my neighbors. Whether or not driving would be convenient for me is not the issue -- the issue is how it makes our neighborhoods dangerous, noisy and dirty. I don't want to be responsible for that.
Other people only care about what is convenient for themselves. I get that. I see it every day.
Trips per hour means exactly what it says. Single occupancy four-wheeled vehicles are the least efficient mode of transportation in terms of throughput (people moved per hour). [0]
> Are you just as much against microplastics in food and cosmetics?
Textbook whataboutism. Do you believe that I need to be some sort of monk-like hippy vegan to be opposed to traffic in my neighborhood? Or is it okay for some regular person to care about something that you don't care about?
