minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•1 year agoLmao “good tech” my ass. There is a beg button in my town and about 1% of drivers completely ignore it. That is way too many people just speeding through.
minus-squareEbbylinkfedilinkEnglish-2•edit-21 year agoHad to look up what a beg button is. Lmao, dude… no. 🤣 Remember how long everyone had to wait before button and sensors entered the game? Anyways, 1% ignore rate would imply the other 99% work. Betting those stats don’t improve if you don’t tap that button.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year ago1% means over 100 people every day ignore the beg button and blast through. 1% is a lot of people.
minus-squareEbbylinkfedilinkEnglish-1•1 year agoAnd if 10% “blast through” without that additional warning, that button is making a difference. Society is a balance of compromises and to take a all-or-nothing stand, especially against safety and assistance technology, is laughable. Remember to appreciate the little victories too.
