gcvsa ⭐️🔰🇺🇸 🇵🇭<p>It's nuts that the only option we have in most places in our society for transportation is cars that cost 10s of $1000s to purchase and operate, weigh 4000 lbs, have 100s of HP, and can go over 100 mph for over 300 mi.</p><p>I've a meeting to attend tomorrow evening. It's 3.5 mi from my home, on roads with a speed limit of 25 mph, and the forecast is for rain/snow mixed, temps in the 30s. It's going to be miserable on my bicycle.</p><p>I don't need a car, I need an enclosed, heated golf cart. <a href="https://mstdn.plus/tags/BanCars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BanCars</span></a></p>

Occasional Ducks<p>As I wrestle once again with the annual agony of getting the car MOT’d and serviced (made worse by trying a new garage who’ve turned out to be useless so I will get to do some of it again next week at my usual place), and look at the insurance renewal that has just come through and while lower than last year is painful, I would really really like it if society would stop forcing me to own the bloody thing.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/BanCars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BanCars</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/JustWalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JustWalk</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ExpletivesDeleted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExpletivesDeleted</span></a></p>
