      In the end the city will have to bulldoze the houses and offices that make up to the city to make room for more roads and cars, increasing costs and destroying their own tax revenue in the process, or realize less cars are the answer.

        In addition to all the parking lots that the increased car traffic would require

      Man, I’m flashing back to my visit to Detroit and the massive ‘boulevard’ that cuts the city in two. The car I was riding in had to get on to what was basically a highway, change lanes a half dozen times, and exit via ramp in order to get from one neighborhood to another. (In the span of a quarter mile).

      It was eerie, but doable, because there weren’t many other cars on the road. I can only imagine how difficult it would have been when there was actually traffic.

      Roads can be walls as well as nooses.

        When you have enough tarmac, you don’t even need lanes or lights, there’ll be space for everyone.

        Lanes are a commie plot to steal freedom anyway.

        It’s obvious from the picture that it is the buildings in the city that cause the congestion. get rid of em.

        I once got stuck behind someones house once, I politely honked three times and flashed my headlights , but it wouldn’t budge, so in the end i had no choice but to ram right through it. Fucking cities stealing all our open roads.

      Long story: short the city will eventually have to decide whether to put one last parking space or one last lane.
