That escalated quickly…you think these people are just willingly going to hop on to a public mode of transportation???
Public transport would be awesome…if it wasn’t so full of other people.
If you didn’t want to be surrounded by other people, you should have thought of that before being born on a planet full of people.
/s
Or born at all. /s
Other people can be shitty, but usually they aren’t. A shitty person in a bus is better than a shitty driver.
Relevant username.
did you know that crematoriums that averages 8 bodies per day consumes around 400 liters of diesel per day
So you’re saying they should switch to high voltage electric arc furnaces instead.
yea, or even liquimation if they could afford it
Just throw my rotting corpse in the compost.
They missed the picture of 200 people in the subway where the streets are completely empty.
What if someone breathes in the ash?
There won’t be anyone to breathe in the ash. They were all cremated
Traffic violation
on today, 9/11 of all days? you get cancer 20 years later and the gov denies healthcare.
They get to walk in the hov lane.
Not to nitpick, but if 200 “fit” in 177 cars (even though car can take 4-5 persons), wit the same logic 200 fit in ~45 buses. But I too like the streets with most of the people cremated.
They “fit” as in the average number of occupants in cars is only 1.13 person. However this illustration still doesn’t take in to account that these 200 people can’t take the same few busses because they’re likely not going from or to the same places. So the number of busses really should be significantly higher than shown.

True, but nowhere near high enough to invalidate the actual point
This also doesnt take into account that people would enter the bus even if there arent any seats remaining
And what is the average number of occupants in a bus? (genuine question)
I don’t know, but if you think about it a bus only needs to carry like 3 people to be more space efficient than a typical car. Most busses probably carry more at least during peak hours based off of numbers from my butt.
Interesting dynamic is that I think bus occupancy tends to scales up with demand, i.e. at rush hour. Car occupancy less so (i think).
I don’t know the answer - but I expect occupancy at peak travel times is of most interest.
I don’t really think averages are that useful though, the whole system context is important. These diagrams are just stupid memes.
Can’t we compress the last one a bit moreand get a smaller diamond?
