There’s an increasing amount of data that shows installing bike lanes and making streets more pedestrian-friendly boosts the economic fortunes of a place. But local businesses owners simply aren’t convinced. Will political fights over bike lanes ever end?

We’re not saying cities should ban cars.
We’re arguing they should stop privileging and prioritizing motor vehicles at the expense of every other mode; forcing dependence through design.
With that revolutionary act, they become far better places for everyone, including drivers.

Here's the full set of answers. As you can see, responses could change dramatically when driving was mentioned. All except Question 2 were hugely statistically different.
This doesn't make sense! The principle is the same in both forms of each question; only context changes 6/14

We have a new study out!
The short version is this: "Car Brain" - the cultural blind spot that makes people apply double standards when they think about driving - is real, measurable and pervasive.

Video Crown Heights hit & run Friday night. NYPD is being responsible & investigating all possibilities. It appears from video that driver may have intentionally driven into the victim, but we simply don’t know yet for certain either way. Jumping to conclusions is irresponsible.

This is horrific.
I’m praying that this man makes a full recovery, and if you have any information about who committed this abhorrent act, contact immediately.
