With their recent bike lane overhauls this makes total sense to me
I just wish the NIMBYs in my neck of the woods would realize that such a thing is awesome for people
This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.
This community exists for the following reasons:
You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.
Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.
No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.
Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.
No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.
No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.
No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.
No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.
Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.

Didn't they do some big bike lanes conversions?
Yes, hundreds of miles in a year connecting disparate lanes into a cohesive network.
Meanwhile NYC failed to put in 50 miles then immediately swept it under the rug and abandoned the plan.
I've heard NYC had a good cycling culture. what's it like on the ground there?
It's improving but there are too many bicycle gutters ("share rows") and our network has a lot of really risky exchanges that you have to cross to get back into protected paths.
Cyclists are regularly killed in the city by drivers.
Yes, one of the most notable ones is Rue de Rivoli
Not just bikes did a video on it, apparently they did a lot of stuff in a very short amount of time
A great development!
LET'S EFFIN GOOOOO!! I wish we could do something like that here 😭
The worst part is, you could. You just don't. (Not talking about you personally, just your city)
