I’m a late 30’s bloke and have always had a love for cars. Japanese, European, American, don’t care, I love cars. Recently though, petrol in my country absolutely skyrocketed in price and I had to give up my wonderful dinosaur-juice powered vehicle for an electric car. I thought I’d hate it, I really did, but my word it’s fantastic! Quiet, comfortable, heaps of bells and whistles to keep me occupied, and it’s genuinely quick. There are a few things I miss, but that pales in comparison to the $100 a week I’m saving in gas.
That’s a really informative video. So basically I’m fucked. We installed a multi-use path in my town a few years ago in the dense part along a very busy, dangerous road. It was a crazy fight to fund it and some people in town are still mad about the cost. Even sidewalks are unicorns around here. There’s a plan to fix all of this but I think I’ll be too old to ride a bike by the time they complete it.
