Autobesity. The growth of the urban tank

In Uncategorized on April 26, 2025 by kmflett

This graphic is from the Urban Cycling Institute. I am not a cyclist but I have never driven a car. Rather I walk and use public transport. Living in the inner city it is something that is still possible- less so elsewhere.

Even so the rise of what might be called the urban tank is very noticeable. Roads that should be two way become one way at a time due to the size of cars and potholes abound partly due to the weight of the vehicles.

Progress in history would be better affordable public transport, less urban tanks and definitely no Teslas
