i think its more of a statement on how the mass majority of people are absprbed by their own world and completely distracted from small details especially while driving.

You must be fun at parties....

Yup. My dad shopped for a family of 3 adults on his bike, using panniers and a large backpack. We had chickens in our garden so the only thing he didn't carry was eggs. It worked out great and we had very little food waste. Now i live in a city and use a "granny" trolley to shop for my husband and I

Exactly. Realized I was buying more food than we ate and the more food we bought the more pressure we felt to eat it within a short time. So, $200 worth of food 15 years ago would only last 1.5 weeks when we had spent over half the grocery budget already. Now we go about a couple times a week to get what we know we'll need for those days then go back again. We throw out way less and our food stock has remained full enough to not feel foodless by the next payday.

First thing you stop buying is oremade drinks. That c**p is heavy. I did once buy a watermelon , forgot i was walking. Had to carry that home a mile away.

And call a cab once in a while

Europe <3

Exactly.

It's a tent made to look like a car. If it were a normal tent, she'd be kicked off the space.

In my city, police would pay a visit to this tent in less than 10 minutes. First, it's absolutely illegal parking a car in the outside whose plates can't be seen.

Sleeping in the streets isn’t illegal. Loitering and trespassing are, which is more often the actual situation

Systemic

Don’t get me wrong; I feel for the homeless, but I feel safer in places that enforce illegal panhandling and public homelessness. Just got my car broken into in broad daylight in the middle of downtown Portland where you can throw a random pebble and still be able to hit a homeless. That’s how many there are in this city, it’s insane. Filed a police report, only to be told it’s pointless bcs nothing will be done and no charges will be filed since it happens way too often in downtown Portland AND the homeless have MORE rights here. I was like, oh… good for them, I guess…? Theft here isn’t even a crime at all if you’re homeless in Portland. At least, that is what 2 officers have lead me to believe.

Yes 100 people in a bus are possible. In for example Vienna there are different busses with different capacities. Examples: -) Citaro G NG 265 MB space for 129 people (41seats, 88 standing room) -) Urbino 12 Hydrogen fits 104 people (27 seats, 77 standing room) -) NBA 85 fits 41 people (15 seats ; 26 standing room). All of them would be plenty for the people in the cars ( 23 cars with 26 people) of the picture. However they are busses for short term transport. If you refer to an overland bus they will have from 32 to 57 seats.

Busses are Magic. Think about it. If you ever Drive a small narrow street with your car with two seats Side by Side and you almost don't fit through, but the Bus Drives trough the Same street with four seats and enough space to Walk. So, yes i am a Believer. I Believe there are 100 people in this Bus.

With seats and standing space combined those actually can fit a 100 people (Also it looks more like a travel bus on this picture rather than public transport)

Normal city bus here fits about 90 so technically you're correct 😅

The world record for the number of people in a so-called "telephone booth" ( is my age showing? :) is 25 or 30 people, depending on your source. So yes, I think 100 would fit.

So change the numbers. There aren't even 50 people in the cars on the right. And you can get 50 peeps in a bus easy.

4 seats in a row * 25 rows = tadaaa! 15 to 20 rows are standard, plus capacity for people standing

Well, maybe if you use a strong enough blender...

Standard city bus has capacity of 30 sitting and 70 standing, or the bigger one 40 sitting and 80 standing. Bendy bus can fit about 50 sitting people and 100 standing or 60 sitting and 90 standing. And if somebody tells you that "getting in is much slower than at car", empty bus is filled in 20 seconds, if half of the full bus wants to get out and same amount of people gets in, it takes 30 seconds. Buses are great.

They do, but not comfortable

If you lie them down and stack them up you could probably fit WAAAY more tbh.

A single decker too?! Madness

Exactly, comparison of seats is important more than people

It's like the clown car? Everyone fits in it?

Oh 100 will fit easily. It's one of those clown buses.

I was on a bus once that was so crowded that i just stayed on past my stop , went into city center and then took bus back.

Here in Germany that only applies to bigger cities though, in the countryside it's very rare to have a convenient connection to anything due to cost reductions.

We have a combination of underground, bus and streetcar. I am without a car since march 2019. I miss it, but it's doable (I bought a shopping trolley so I don't ruin my back) If I need a car I ask a friend or take a taxi which us still cheaper than owning a car. The only issue I have is if I want to visit remote villages or lakes.

If you think we've solved the car problem here, I have news for you. It's just not as bad as in North America.

(32 feet (total) + 13 feet (stop distance)) per bus x 2 bus = 90 feet. (15 feet + 13 feet (stop distance)) per car x (100 people / 1.5 people per car) = 2100 feet. So photo might exaggerate but bus is still over 21 times more space efficient than car.

Its better than loving cars being your whole personality. (Enter any other profit driven identity pried into your brain)

I would suggest that they don't really HAVE a personality at that point

UH, did you not see the bike lane to their desk they got out of it??!?

Same could be said about your religion, or your politics. Yeah, I’m speaking you MAGA crowd

He didn't say it was his whole personality. Someone put a sarcastic made-up quote in the title saying that.

Unless you're the time haters
