      Don’t y’all wave flags or something like that not to be murdered by a car?

      Correction: to be murdered by a car anyways, but at least with a flag in hands

        Media: They had it coming, look at that flag. They were asking for it. If you didn’t want to get hit by a car, why are you dressed so provocatively?

          And when they didn’t carry a flag “they weren’t even carrying a flag and waving it above there head! they where basically asking to be hit.”

    Great post! I’ll be sharing this. You should add “I need this vehicle for when I might need to carry a boat or 7 passengers once the future”

    Also I will say I do enjoy driving but I especially enjoy driving around well designed narrow streets with speed humps and roundabouts. Driving on stroads is just depressing and boring.

    You should replace the middle pic caption with “hates everything about driving, but will never admit it.”

    I’m convinced that many cities intentionally make pedestrian hostile architecture in the transition zones between residential and workplace areas.

    … can I just ask what’s with the car in the bottom right of the pic? (What’s the “or” between the two, seems specific?)

    Shouldn’t it be like an SUV or something?
    Or is it a BMW thing (in the USA synonymous with road rage for some reason?)?

This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

  • to raise awareness around the dangers, inefficiencies and injustice that can come from car dependence.
  • to allow a place to discuss and promote more healthy transport methods and ways of living.

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn’t choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don’t use slurs. You can laugh at someone’s fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don’t post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn’t a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
