I find the EU's whitewashing ads unappealing. The video is also quite pointless in terms of the actual message, except that it demonstrates once again that vulnerable road users are not seen as part of traffic, but instead operate on a separate track — mostly and sadly because motorised traffic does not obey fundamental safety rules. Yet technology is not used to enforce these rules, but rather as a last-resort emergency backup to prevent worse. I don't get it.

@EUCommission
Anyone else getting the urge to play Frogger?

@EUCommission This is good, the rules are designed to make life safer; unlike in the USA where the trend is for cars so high that it is impossible to see a child in front of the front bumper, and being a pedestrian is almost a criminal act.

@IncHulk @EUCommission

Mmmh meanwhile the EU signed shitty treaty to appease the orange asshole .

…

No. Absolutely no.

Fewer cars, physically separated bike lanes and pedestrian lanes and car free areas in cities make safer roads.

“Smart” cars are just an attempt to divert attention from the real problems

By the way: People don’t want roads, the want streets.

What the list should have contained:

1. Better infrastructure separating cyclists from cars.
2. Lower speed limits or no cars in dense populated areas.
3. What does this even mean?
4. Mandatory car test once per year like here in Sweden, tires included.
5. New safety standard for cars with external airbags for pedestrians/cyclists.

6. Stop making cars another always connected surveillance tool! Both for national security and individual privacy is this a really bad idea.

@EUCommission Step 1. Find the cameras
Step 2. Grab a drill bit
Step 3. Drive said drill bit until lens is obscured
Step 4. Privacy
