Agreed - and “Nu Way”, in case someone tries googling them.

This is completely unnecessary. No laws even need to be changed for these cars to be impounded. Our existing laws are not enforced.

When you hear talk about people being spiritually bankrupted by material possessions - and freed in their absence - this has got to be what it’s about. Not exactly my philosophy, but I definitely enjoy the same relationship with my car.

Reply to Was pleasantly surprised to find that the oldest surviving passenger railroad station in the country is here in Philadelphia county - Shawmont station in Roxborough. Currently undergoing rehab to reopen this summer. by Odd-Emergency5839
Where did you read of a reopening this summer? I've been hearing about this station's restoration for years (restoration as a building, not as a train station of course), but haven't seen evidence yet.

Philadelphia wasn’t designed for cars - and neither were Jersey City or NYC for that matter. They’ve been badly retrofitted for cars, and it shows. These are all cities built for walking within neighborhoods and public transportation between neighborhoods. Philadelphia’s over-reliance on cars despite the way its actually built is a policy choice that costs us in time, money, and safety every day.

More than one thing can be true at the same time. Public safety isn't the reason why your bus is late, or your regional rail can't get you home after 9:00 at night.
