Scaling a 4 meter high ramps on every intersection sounds like a fucking nightmare

[–] fishos -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, because no one anywhere has ever built a ramp that made sense.

You're intentionally being obtuse.

It doesn't matter how much sense your ramp makes, it still needs enough height to allow trucks to pass under it. That's a lot of height to gain. Any sensible ramp would be very long and take up a lot of space, and be very impractical to have to scale at every intersection.
