You’ve heard of bike gutters, get ready for people gutters!

SUV, Truck, SUV, SUV, SUV, SUV, sedan, SUV, SUV, SUV, SUV.

The culture problem around big vehicles we've created with bad regulation and aggressive marketing is depressing.

So glad they put that thick protective white line there so I know I won’t be hit 🥰

What in the stupid is this?

If you are walking you're either poor or up to no good, in both cases we don't want you around these parts. Oh, your kids need to walk? Don't be lazy and DRIVE them where they need to go!

Sometimes I’m driving in the night and I just see old women in work uniforms and a lunch bag walking by themselves on a tiny dirt path on the side of the road to a bus stop, with no lights except my headlights. Shits terrifying and depressing. Conservatives are constantly virtue signaling with child trafficking, but they don’t even want to fix the basic infrastructure that allows people to be preyed on

Why even allow people in this neighborhood? Just have cars and no people

This what I hate about North America. Non walkable neighbourhoods.

Is that a pedestrian symbol or the chalk outline of a pedestrian who got hit?

Next they'll eliminate the stripe and put up share-the-road signs with the stick figure

The presence of the paint makes this nightmare area more walkable than plenty of places in the Failed States of America. I once had the misfortune of living in a place where the presence (or much more often, absence) of sidewalk was completely up to the owner of the property the stretch of road in question abutted. The rare property owner who chose to add sidewalk created a completely useless, disconnected decoration.

Wow it’s like you guys are trying as hard as possible to not put in sidewalks.

Soooo...a sidewalk without the extra pavement?

Wow, I sure am glad that the kerb is there to protect those blades of grass!

I'm just wondering why that corpse was wearing such an unhealthy corset.

Who would use this? Wouldn't you either walk on the grass or clearly in the middle of the street?

What dystopian fuckery is this?

Where I live people will park their tanks trucks in the driveway and block the sidewalk. At least they won't be able to do that here, but I wouldn't be surprised if people just start parallel parking on the people gutter

Imagine seeing this when house hunting and still buying the house. You'd have to have worms in your brain to want one of these ugly McMansions with no sidewalk

Who the hell designed this? I want to see the person who made this burn in hell

More like it was a guy who got flattened by a car and got painted over, because that's exactly what's going to happen if you try and walk there

I keep seeing joggers in my area choosing the bike lane over the sidewalk, presumably because asphalt is softer than concrete sidewalks. If paving a ped lane next to the bike lane is what it takes to isolate these wrong-way bike-lane-jogging scufflaws, then let's just do it and be done with it. We can cannibalize a car lane to make it happen. >:-)

And of course every car there is a suburban assault vehicle too.

You've heard of bike gutters

No I haven't.

Yo that's unreal

Poor Polish village style infrastrucutre, now in your nearest city! (Authentic hole ridden roads not included)

What hell would this be to walk in, jesus christ...

Sidewalks would interrupt my precious lawn!

Time for a car gulag. Garage gulag? Garlag? Gulage?

They saw people walking in the road because there are no sidewalks and decided to paint a line, brilliant, job well done.

I’m guessing they call this “multiuse”? And I’m guessing it gets filled with parked cars immediately.

Honestly still more than my city has on some streets

Honestly it probably was or maybe is a question of when until the system that produces bike gutters as "infrastructure" figures out that hey, this works just as well for pedestrians as it does for bike.

That amount is basically zilch, but we got the first idea through and it's widely accepted so why not save some money here, too

In my opinion, if this was done in a community that was not designed for sidewalks (the house are very close to the curb), then it's better than nothing. I'd like to see some bollards or post reflectors or something, but at least there is some effort.

On the other hand, if this is a new community and this is the sidewalk "solution" then fuck them.

Ideally we would have a car free utopia, but that doesn't happen overnight, so any step forward, even if it's a shuffle, is good, I think.

You can be lying inside this line just like that guy!

if lines can keep out sea bears, obviously they can keep out these pesky pedestrians from getting in front of my SUV!

I would never live somewhere with no sidewalks.

if anyone in this community uses a car you are part of the problem

Ask for a bike lane and hopefully you can get multi-use gutters

I don't care that the GULAG shut down in 1960.

We're opening it up again.

And we're putting the monster that came up with this in there, in time out, so they can think about what they did.

Fake or not in the US? It definitely looks like standard USA fare, but this is not a pedestrian symbol I've ever seen

Awesome, now bikers can roll over stickman nuts every day to work and pretend it's the boss.

This is blasphemy. What should we call walking on the side of the road in some sort of designated zone?

oil

It is a joke...

Only in America

This looks like a suburb my parents live in, except they have sidewalks and people still choose to walk in the street and then get angry when you almost hit them?

You’ve heard of “fuckcars”? Get ready for “fuck_cars”!
