There is nothing more American than being in traffic. You're never more in touch with a systemic failure, yet we blame it on the choices of individual drivers, all the while unaware that we're part of the problem.

[-] sinedpick@awful.systems 35 points 3 months ago

my man have you ever been in, like, another country?

[-] Chefdano3@lemm.ee 14 points 3 months ago

No, but they definitely don't have traffic in Germany. They have the Autobahn, the perfect solution to any and every traffic problem that could ever exist.

[-] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

I got the sarcasm here, but I think your reply really drove it home for anyone who missed it.

[-] uis@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

Autobahn can be translated as natural selection. Car drivers there tend to disappear.

You wouldnt say that after trying to get through Berlin or one of the other major cities

[-] Chefdano3@lemm.ee 14 points 3 months ago

Hogwash! It's impossible for Berlin to have any traffic, all the cars are on the Autobahn, and they always go fast. Always. Nobody ever goes slow on the Autobahn. It's actually illegal to go slow in Germany. You can cruise through Berlin at 200 MPH (but never slower than 100 MPH, that's illegal) anytime of day thanks to the Autobahn dramatic reverb

If there were traffic jams they’d call it the Stahpobahn
