Is there a place where cars crash commonly into buildings? Looks like an incredibly rare event
Yes, that totally does happen. There is a street in Hamburg, Germany, where in recent years over 20 senior citizens drove into the local shops:
Taking into another level the meaning of drive-thru shop.
I thought the same way. Where the hell is that common?
This channel is always saying things like the Netherlands is heaven and everything good about the country is exclusive to the Netherlands and that the country is perfect with absolutely no faults.
I stopped watching the videos because it felt like every video was just an advertisement from the Netherlands tourist department.
The video opens with lots of examples of how often it happens where the maker is originally from.
Yeah, he always speaks like Canada (IIRC) is the whole world.
No he doesn’t.
Well, I’m glad he has improved 🙂
We should also blame car manufacturers. Why are cars built to accelerate to 100 in a few seconds from standstill? If you’re parked (and the car can know the difference between being parked and a traffic light), why is acceleration not restricted? There is no reason for being able to accelerate like that in a parking space. You should get a much slower acceleration by default and car manufacturers could put that in their cars right now.
Am I supposed to acually watch that video or can I just use the most basic common sense?
Separating car traffic from bike traffic from pedestrian traffic adds a lot of layers between cars and buildings, while measures to calm down traffic -to protect those bikers and pedestrians- also reduces severe crashes (and you would need a lot of force to actually damage a building).
I always watch Not Just Bikes even tho its often common sense because his videos are kinda relaxing xD
His calm voice over some random footage of bikes driving around. Peak content haha
