@PATHTrain Please resume announcements telling people to take their damned backpacks off. It’s like this every day. Sadly, people clearly don’t get basic etiquette training at home anymore.

Conventional wisdom thinks of car traffic as a liquid, where adding capacity (ie. width) keeps it flowing. But in reality it acts more like a gas, where it expands to fill the amount of space available. And the only proven way to relieve congestion is to evaporate some of it...🧵

Add the new Brownsboro Road restriping to the canon of road projects only considering drivers, the rest of us can figure it out. One-dimensional thinking that we’ll spend future money to fix.

@robmolou Well, to start, how about carpooling? You can pack 4-5+ kids in the standard suburban wankpanzer.

On a train between London and Edinburgh. Such a pleasant experience. Much cheaper than flying and much more relaxing than driving. And the food is 😚
