I thought America didn’t have pedestrian crossings?
Correct. Only tunnels like that I’ve seen were abroad, here you have to chance it on foot or get a car.
Lol “chance it” like every time you cross a street at a red light it’s frogger. 🙄
There are crossings at intersections around where I live, but generally crosswalks are few and far between anywhere else (especially on long stroads)
I really don’t understand why other than cities and towns aren’t willing to spend money on the sidewalks and painted lines

You seen pics of the streets after they implemented congestion pricing? I lived there for years and never saw anything like it.
Fuck you and your public transit system. ~ A Texan (and no, the DART doesn’t count, it’s underground for one station…)
at least we HAVE a public transit system
Yeah, tunneling through that rock would be more expensive than moving everyone there to Mars.
You should rewatch The Matrix. Any human presence above ground is met with immediate hostility and death.

My US city’s downtown area is 35% open air parking lot. Another 25% is road surface.
Our city council keeps bemoaning the decay of the downtown area. We keep sending them letters, speaking at council meetings, and advocating for something other than building more car shit.
What was their big “look at how amazing our city is!” thing recently? That’s right! Freeway expansion so people can get downtown faster. I’m sure that’ll fix it.
Damn, that sounds frustrating 😕
It a major reason I’m currently flying back from multiple interviews in Europe. I’m tired of having to drive everywhere when I can find a city that won’t require it the same way.
I also want my kids to grow up somewhere that has a government who protects them more than the US does. Our whole “rugged individualism” attitude is just an extension of Capitalist oligarchy telling us to sit down and take it while they exploit us for money.
Yes, the US has radicalized me and so I’m working to change my situation and my children’s future situations.
