Yeah that’s why I said I doubt it, not I know for a fact that’s not the case. Because I don’t know first hand. That’s literally what the text of my comment implies and was meant to imply.
The doubt comes from the fact that I literally can’t envision any scenario at all whatsoever where prioritizing car parking anywhere for anything is actually beneficial to anyone, including car users themselves.
Not a single post you’ve made on lemmy has been multi-paragraph. I don’t think there’s any point arguing with you because you seem like you’d enjoy a roll in the mud. I’m not sure you could string a cohesive argument together.
That’s not the case. I’m pro bike, pro-bike lanes. I’m pro bike lane in Berkley. But I also recognize the need for residents of Berkley to have adequate parking.
How many people who live and work throughout the area would prefer to commute via public infra vs personal. The preponderence of those lower income individuals who do make up the majority of the lower class are pushed out further when they aren’t considered.
Lower income residence can’t afford cars dude. Take the local minimum wage, find an apartment that could be reasonably split up between n-roomates and then do the math on where the money goes from there. It’s expensive to be poor.
I don’t disagree with your last statement. However, “house poor” is a thing. People squeaking by on the mortgages. They don’t deserve parking near their homes?
Sounds like you’ve never been there
Maybe stick your commenting on Canadian topics instead of cities you’ve never visited.The previous comment was rude and uncalled for. I apologize.
I’ve been there and you’re full of shit.
It’s better than most American cities but that’s like saying it smells better than most dead fish.
In the last year?
I think it’s been slightly more than a year but somehow I doubt they’ve transformed the entire city in the last 18 months.

InfoSec.pub user, you probably make 6+ figures and haven’t ridden a bike in iver a decade.
To be fair, in my experience that’s exactly the kind of person I’d expect to see on a bike.
While these sets do overlap, they aren’t as complete as most might think. There’s still a lot of pinkertons lurking around in that crowd.
Cry about it
Buddy, you can’t even make a convincing argument.
Quiet, piggie.
You’ve clearly already lost the argument when you resort to insults.
I’m still waiting for a convincing argument, and you’re not providing one.
Every time you continue to do so, you’re eating away your credibility and any respect that you should be given.
🤡👞
Ok pal

Your modlog is quite telling
Case in point, you want to make policy that you’ve only seen one side of the story without living the other end of it.

I’d argue that a lot of the lower income residents need their cars/parking more to survive. Especially in a high cost of living area.

So you’re a Berkley resident, and therefore entitled to an opinion?
I’ve biked and driven through berkley, and would consider myself entitled to a qualified opinion.
You would be the only other person in this thread that should be commenting then.
I appreciate that, thank you.
