More racist highways.

What Chuck hasn’t figured out is that highways may have been built to escape the crime of the city, but now people have tired of the commute and people with the means are moving back into the city and gentrifying the inner city, pushing the poor into the suburbs where they must now commute to reach welfare services.

Outlines new plan to reduce traffic deaths, lower speed limits, bike paths and bus lanes.

An 18% increase under his watch.

Maybe he'll save lives by bringing back the national 55 mph speed limit! The backlash from that would insure we'd never have to worry about him being elected to anything, ever again.

maybe he should look at cause of accidents

TEXT and driving, DUI. not racist roads or dipsticks walking out into traffic
55mph NOPE that would go over like a lead balloon i am pretty sure 55 mph killed 3x as many as those driving 75...at 55 i found i got bored and tended to doze or want to drift off

i was behind a woman this afternoon on hwy154 two lane highway speed limit 70, over 5 times she crossed the lanes into the oncoming traffic so severe when she swerved back into the correct lane she was as close to being out of control as you can get...i increased my distance from her as i knew it was only time before she plowed a concrete truck head on


as luck found her...a DPS guy hiding behind a tree saw her and spun around.
she scared the crap out of me

A much more important question to ask anyone who says we could drive electric cars is "OK, Where do I go buy one?" No one has very many new cars in stock, whether electric, gasoline, CNG, or diesel powered.

Anti-trust regulators have been asleep on the job for decades now:

The past 2 decades saw the number of major airlines in the US cut in half. See how consolidation in the 2000s left customers with fewer options as profits soared.
...the US saw eight more mergers and acquisitions shaping the current industry and setting the stage for record profits as some airlines grew larger with each transaction.

The result from years of mergers and acquisitions became three dominant carriers in the US with smaller carriers operating in their shadows and in the gaps, leaving the American public with fewer options.
What we really need is a competitive market with more airlines.

What we need is the government to get its fat thumbs out of private business.

He must on track for Dem presidential candidate as they are saying he did a great job on Fox News defending his spouse’s tweet on it being ok to harass Kavanaugh at dinner. Right to free speech and all.

Please vote in November.

The only way Electric Cars are a viable option is if there is a Nuclear Reactor supplying power to every major Metropolitan Area

Interesting story on a 9 yo $35k home solar system.

That doesn’t sound like a solution either.

So ole Pete is just doing great job as Sec of Transportation.

One transportation disaster after another, now a toxic train derailment that is actually harming people unlike climate change.

If you saw video of that Ohio disaster on the news, it looked like an apocalyptic conflagration with massive, dark, noxious clouds of smoke. Yet the same medical authorities who locked down the economy and made us wear masks for two years told the residents they could go back home literally hours later. Nothing to see here. Never mind that hundreds of fish are floating belly-up in the Ohio River, or that nearby chicken coops are filled with dead birds, or that the residents get headaches, burning eyes and throats, and other chemical exposure symptoms within minutes of going back into the area.
