Our goal is to peacefully encourage more people to cycle and convince car owners to use their car for less trips when viable to do so. A lot of people own cars, would calling them Nazis really help our cause?

My vision is we make cyclists and public transit users look like responsible happy citizens and attract jealousy of those stuck in traffic.

By putting bicycle at the start of the news article, it makes the topic about bike riders instead of the topic being about bad driving.

“Car hits bicycle riders” - how sad, poor cyclists, irresponsible driver

At a time I was working in a certain resteraunt, I was in the drive thru and a woman did laps of the drive though asking me how to make an account in the app, and then EVERY. STEP. OF. THE. DAMN. ORDERING. PROCESS. she did a lap of the drive through because she was puzzled and had no idea how to place an order. I suggested we could help her at the front counter but she insisted that she was in a hurry and the app was stupid. In the end, it was just a couple of simple menu items, that I could have added to the order manually within seconds. Some people...

Oh, plenty of buses could become train lines that run every 10 - 20 minutes.

90 or 100km/h limit on towed boats. I think the limit is 90 (at least in south Australia). This way they won't be handling dangerously, can be imposed with truck speed limits.
