and while I don’t think the person who cut them down is doing the right thing for the right reasons, they are doing the right thing.

So you think they are doing the right thing for... the wrong reasons?

Yeah, the omnipotentEntity seems to lack a bit of reasoning here.

That is basically what is said here, yes.

That is a bad take.

TL;DR: If you do incriminating stuff, you should be incriminated.

There are rules that every driver has to adhere to. The rules are there for protection of the drivers and the people that rely on the drivers driving safely. But the thing is: without consequences, some people show bad behaviour, one being ignoring the rules which are made to keep people safe. In order to suppress such behaviour, fines and punishment are used.

I have been driving cars for around 10 years and have gotten a fine three times. The amount I paid for it in total was roughly 10 Euros per year, which is less than 1 Euro per month. And I could have avoided having to pay this by just being mindful and acting according to the rules, which I did not.

If people feel like they should drive 120 kmh in a 50 kmh zone or even worse, without any proper justification, they do not belong behind the wheel of a car.

Muss denn zuvor eine Tauglichkeitsprüfung zur Wiedererlangung des Führerscheins erfolgen? Ich kenne mich da nicht so aus... aber die Idee, dass so eine Person erneut legal ein Fahrzeug führen darf, die ist mir einfach unbegreiflich. Was wäre denn tatsächlich so verkehrt daran, solchen Menschen die Möglichkeit zu nehmen, legal Auto zu fahren?

Ethics is too complicated of a topic for some people in here, it seems. You don't need to be a psychopath to be wrong about this stuff, but being wrong about it is nothing to be proud of anyway.

Competitive wages and benefits... which does not mean "good" wages and benefits.

... das sind doch bürgerliche Kategorien.

When I think of the situations that occur in everyday traffic and how people behave there, completely without google being involved, I am absolutely not surprised at the level of carelessness that radiates from such events. Though it could also be my lower trust in services like google maps because I have a deeper knowledge of the technology behind it than most people. There may be people who think of google maps as some kind of authority that has proven to not be wrong at any time...

If google had enough information and time to correct such map errors and did not out of neglect, they may still be held accountable. And I think that this is a good thing.

Nur weil auf dem Land das Fahrrad nicht so sehr hilft, wie das Auto, heißt das ja nicht, dass es nicht trotzdem Gründe gegen das Auto gibt. Es gabt halt nur kein gutes Mittel, um die Notwendigkeit zur Nutzung des Autos zu verringern.

Die Presse schreibt, dass der Radfahrer "von einem Mercedes überfahren" wurde. Das ist aber schlicht falsch. Der Radfahrer wurde mit einem Mercedes überfahren und von einem 67 jährigen Mann.

If you have nothing to contribute, why comment at all? There are people here who care about this stuff. It is okay that you don't.
