That’s what Canadian homeowners think too, which is why govt at all levels is moving so painfully slowly to do anything about housing.
“If we build more housing, the price of homes will go down, and homeowners will lose their wealth”
Trump admits what every homeowner blocking more housing is thinking.

These are arguments for breaking the law that would be widely recognized as psychotic if offered in any other context. But when we're drivers, we just feel entitled. I *wanna* go fast, so fuck you, fuck safety, fuck society.

This is a true & effectively irrefutable argument ... which is why it's so fun to read the absolute cosmic nonsense in the comments.
"I need to go higher than the speed limit when I'm passing/avoiding something/driving in snow/feel like it!"
"I need to go higher than the speed limit when I'm passing/avoiding something/driving in snow/feel like it!"
My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.
(15 in Manhattan btw)
(15 in Manhattan btw)
There is no possible justification for limiting e-bikes to 15mph but not cars.

That has only resulted in more conservative policy.
