  • I thought i’d heard the local arrodissement populace had a lot of say over what happens in their neighborhood?

    That was given as a reason Paris could reduce cars much faster than many cities , as Paris seems less dominated by the median suburban voter.

    It’s shite if that 's not true. Paris seems so chill these days; at least in contrast to 20 years ago.

    So what exactly are these elections for? Can they really go to an arondissement and remove all the pro-pedestrian stuff? Is that in their power - if the residents don’t want it.



















  • TBF fuck bikes on this one too.

    I find it extremely easy to dip my headlamp on a bike when someone is coming, just roll it down round the bar for a little while. But so many seem so obsessed with pumping out their gajillion lumens right in my face. I’m sure one day i will run myself off the path due to these fuckers.

    I find it worse on a bike path because they’re so close.
