I timed it a few trips ago. I actually made it from the escalator to baggage claim in 3 minutes to make a train last week but would heavily not recommend.

It’s like 6-7 minutes from baggage claim to the platform.

You also get off the train and just walk in. I’ve been stuck more than a few times in the drop off line which really sucks. Like 40 minutes to the airport, 15 to get out of the car.

Ok then what do those people do literally anytime their car needs anything? Literally compared it to a car price. What can you get for your car that’s $600? Like a few new tires?

What’s the cheapest car you can get? What do new car tires cost? Ebikes are a stupid cheap car replacement.
$600 (agree with another poster that that’s way too cheap) is like 6-8 months of car insurance.

High quality fresh fish is worth it tho. We probably spend 15-20% of our grocery budget on 1ish good fish meal a week (largely vegetarian at home, some fish).

So when you’re about to go into an intersection, you can do this thing called look through the intersection to see if there’s room for you. If there isn’t, you don’t go into the intersection!

Outlying metro stops are good. I used to park at Franconia Springfield all the time. You’re good for at least two weeks. Parking is either $5 or free if you leave on a weekend

What? People literally drive over flex posts constantly, including right into bike lanes that other people are in. That’s not a made up situation, it happens every day on any of the protected lanes the original article is bitching about!

Running into a bollard should have consequences because hitting a person behind that bollard sure as shit does!
Should people actively suffer because an idiot in a giant death machine was operating it poorly, or should the operator deal with the consequences?

A bollard is stationary! Whatever’s behind it would get maximalist damage from a car going through it like what happens with plastic sticks!
I just think there should be consequences for maneuvering a multi thousand point piece of metal dangerously!

Oh yeah, I don’t want drivers in bike lanes. I am fussy about that. I like people to actively suffer if they want to do shit that actively endangers me!

My proposal is to ditch the plastic and replace them with proper bollards. Those actually look better and are a lot less forgiving when someone hits o e

Yeah like I was full blown running pretty hard to the last escalator but it’s doable
