he’s a soldier who makes videos about being a soldier, and other real world military topics. for a brief period, he uploaded gaming videos.

the meme is deliberately misleading. this wasn’t a gamer who became a soldier, he is a soldier who plays games sometimes.

heavier vehicles corner worse. traffic calming is more effective

default sorting ranks recent posts more highly than highly voted ones.

if you sort by top it sorts by score alone, at the expense of newer comments being buried.

everyone who disagrees with me is russian

my rival is called Butts (a very funny name)

no.

traffic calming devices use physics. a car cannot travel through a chicane above the maximum designed speed. bollards stop vehicles from endangering people by being solid.

you don’t need humans to enforce the laws of physics, that’s why traffic calming works.

If you think you need temporary speed limits to keep children safe, you have streets that are fundamentally unsafe for everyone.

Traffic cameras exist to generate revenue for the police department.

They should be changing the code to ensure that streets are safe for everyone at all times, not just the few hours a day when there are likely to be children present.

Is the US interstate highway system commercially viable? It seems to lose money constantly.

I think the diverging diamond interchange is terrible. Because of the crossover, traffic can only cross the interchange in one direction at a time, so most of the traffic in the interchange is not moving most of the time.

A pair of roundabouts connected to on ramps eliminates the danger of left turns without stopping the majority of traffic most of the time.

A massive overbuilt interchange that cannot function without traffic lights is the opposite of elegant.
