Lots of good #CarBrain gems in the quotes.
“Losing my parking”
It’s not your parking. You don’t pay for it. You want parking, build your own damn parking.
Edit: losing parking, not loosing…
Very accurate framing!
Hard to explain this concept to the parasites.
B-but mah convenience (at the expense of everyone else)!
All of them boomers who will never ever need to take a bus. These people are disgusting.
Yet 99% of them should be nowhere near an automobile because they are technically to old to be fucking driving.
Oh they’ll need it for disability purposes eventually, and they’ll lobby for it. And because they spent their active years voting against public transit, all they’ll get is some rinky-dink shuttle service.
I agree with the boomers, we shouldn’t be building Rapid Bus Service, in Lake Forest Park. We should be de-populating and relocating every one of the “white-flight” suburbanites that currently live there to green communities within Seattle proper.
Brief stretches without bus lanes would be a non-issue if drivers would yield to busses like they are supposed to.

I don’t understand why it has to be buses.
You shouldn’t be downvoted for this.
Busses are a great way to introduce some public transport on the cheap: All you really need is - well - the vehicles, enough road capacity to run them and some signs to indicate where the stop is. And you can easily tweak the network to try and optimize it as you learn more about the needs of the travelers.
I can’t comment to that specific place, but buses have the advantage that they are easy to redeploy along different routes if necessary. Accomplishing the same feat with the train is extraordinarily difficult. Trains make sense along heavily populated corridors with a pre-existing need for the business.
