The Propaganda that Makes Transportation Sucks / Part II - Why Transportation sucks in America

Image
In Part I , I talked about result of us having a transportation system designed for you to consume as much oil as possible. In this part, (Part II) I'll be focusing on the propaganda that convinces you that driving is the best thing since slice bread. This is about the propaganda that says it's great to be in a car and how are cars supposedly are better, but leaves out how much welfare is required for you to be able to drive your car. How much cost is required of you, the owner of the vehicle to maintain it. This is why public transportation sucks. So how did we get here? The War on Cars Starts :      This is a misnomer because it's in fact the other way around. There was never ever a war on cars. There is however a war on walking, a war on bicycling and a war against using transit. It started over a hundred years ago when GM purchased the New York Streetcar system and replace the streetcars with buses. The reason for this was because people in cities just weren't buyin...

How to avoid Another Elton John Disaster.

Image
For the longest time, my life has gotten in the way. I was either spending time with my family or hauling toilet paper to those who needed it. But ever since I heard about the Traffic Apocalypse at the Elton John concert , the solution immediately came right up to my mind. I've finally found the time to write on how to solve this problem. Now will it get implemented? Well, that's up to the city of San Antonio. What Won't Work:      Before I get into the solutions, people will need to understand why building a new arena at the edge of town isn't a solution nor widening the freeway. For one, widening the current freeway (I-37) next to the Alamodome will only cause more congestion whether there's an event happening or not. Now the other solution that I've heard is putting a New Alamodome out on the edge of town. I'm assuming that it would probably be where the Missions baseball team currently plays at which is out by Lackland AFB. But even then, you're ...

Why this cyclist is voting for VIA

Image
I know that this is going to make some of my readers mad, but it must be done. I understand that most of the Cycling community is against this but all of you should be for ATD Proposition A when you go vote for a President and here's why.... Can't use the trails after dark : I hear constantly from my fellow cyclist that the trail system should be a part of an overall network for bicycle transportation. That's sounds great until you eventually learn that it's illegal to use the Linear Creekways after dark, Sec. 22-28. Public parks hours of operation and curfew. I have heard of several instances of people trying to use the Leon Creek after dark only only to be kicked off the trail and ticketed. I have been lucky enough to only to be kicked off the Salado Creek Greenway once by Park Police and told not to go through Los Patios which I promptly stopped. I would prefer to have overnight bus service over being ticket for using the safe way after dark. Also, these trails are l...
