Omg i am getting so anxious while watching this.. the roads are so freaking chaotic and messy, there is happening so much at the same time. I really get anxious thinking i have to drive here

[@sammypanda]

it's on purpose, you shouldn't want to drive.. but if you must the facility is there. If you don't need then you'd like bicycles or public transport, why wouldn't you choose that?

ironically according to public consensus its way more pleasant to drive in the netherlands than in the US where infrastructure is built to support cars

[@vali20vali20vali20]

@@unrealgalaxy9669 Only the bike freaks say so. What's shown in the video barely qualifies as roads - every street is blocked off for cars, forcing the driver to take useless detours. I'd take the US traffic any day.

[@yod2189]

@@weetikissa what do you mean he just passes the person on the bike and 11.55 he is allowed to do that because he can drive in that street and the marking is not a straight line and even if its not allowed he did no one any harm

[@weetikissa]

@@yod2189 In the first clip, he cut off cyclists who had priority while giving them almost no time to react. Criminally dangerous. In the second clip, he passed cyclists dangerously close in an area where passing is not allowed. Solid line means no passing, and you're supposed to give cyclists lots and lots of space. He got dinged at by the cyclist for a reason.

@@insertaverygenericnamehere It's the opposite for me you car hating ... human!

[@sjsf200]

Cars in a city centre a usually only there because they are looking for a parking space or leaving their parking space. if a car wants to just go through the city as fast as possible it should probably have picked a more appropriate route like the ring road around the outside of the city.

[@marek2656]

@@maxkube9166 Don't need a car if you live there or visit. Public transport and cycling system is built well so you can travel way more conveniently that way. It also saves the downtown city from becoming one large parking space like in many US towns. Have you ever visited Amsterdam? :)

[@Gurka84]

Fuck seems like a living nightmare with all those slow bikes everywhere, this is atrocious, beautiful city, but a nightmarish transportation.

[@ex0stasis72]

That’s exactly what’s so great about it. Cars have dead last priority. It would be a nightmare to drive in the Netherlands, I agree, but I want to live in a place where I have the freedom to not have to own a car.

[@Gurka84]

@@ex0stasis72 You just described my nightmare, cars for me symbolize freedom and comfort, practicality and fun, going to where I want wherever I want, it's about going with a family full of equipment to travel and to have that time together. Nothing can replace that no matter what. A world without cars, is a limited and sad world for me, and Netherlands is a living nightmare for me, all those slow ass bicycles getting in everybodys way, poor drivers. I hope that this obnoxious model will never arrive to where I live.

[@ex0stasis72]

@@Gurka84 Driving is a luxury not everyone can afford. A society that requires it in order to function in the workforce is what I am opposed. And the only way for a society not to require it is to have affordable housing spread evenly everywhere mixed in with commercial property evenly mixed everywhere. Single-family zoning laws is the main culprit that makes it infeasible to not own a car.

[@Gurka84]

@@ex0stasis72 I'm not opposed for having options, I'm opposed with running over cars owners, you can develop bicycles routes without harming driving cars around the city so bad. You can give priority to public transportation like busses, trains and metro but why the fuck I need as a driver to suffer with all those slow ass bikes and drive at 5 km per hour? This is horrible. There are many countries that offer many alternative for driving a car without making driving a living nightmare like in the Netherlands. Im all for good alternatives, but I do not agree with making driving a nightmare because of that.

[@ex0stasis72]

@@Gurka84 Well the reason there is so little car-specific land use in the Netherlands is because it is the least efficient use of space. You can fit many times more bikes in a given space than cars, whether that be on the streets or as parking lots. When you design a city to accommodate cars like that, you inevitably make it so that everyone on foot or by bike has to travel many times farther than if they just built up everything closer together. If you're curious, you should check out the famous picture of the "Stop de kindermoord" (or "Stop the child murder") protest in 1973, where thousands of people protested with their bikes and all lied down on a huge, wide street for cars. You can barely see the ground there were so many people strewn out for maybe a km (at least in the picture). That's the protest that influenced why the Netherlands is so bike-friendly today.
