photo enforcement sucks and doesn’t really work and is just used as tax revenue for cities
meanwhile speeding continues as normal with all the casualties that come with it
Cities, however, do need this revenue to not go bankrupt because they’re all designed wrong and can barely get any tax revenued while still affording details like infrastructure maintenance
Cities should redesign their rod infrastructure instead. Where you still need car roads, design the roads for the speed you want. If you put a highway in front of a school, people will drive a 100 miles per hour because that is what the road was dest for.
Cities should start changing laws to push for livable designs focused on humans beings instead of cars everywhere. You’ll need less cars, have less accidents, get more tax revenue from more local businesses
yeah and I could have just looked up all the info and not used this but the only reason I gave it some thought was someone thought it was interesting enough to post and presumably receive feedback.
There’s a place on the Blackwater River I have marked. So far I’ve traced 7 waterfalls trekking uphill from the water side. But I can hear more in the distance!
“Both states were not included in the larger dataset. Number of watefalls is likely higher than depicted.” in reference to Alaska and Hawaii. It might not have been super visible to some people.
As a geography nerd I don’t think we have the capabilities to actually count every single waterfall in Alaska. Alaska is still true wilderness and it is massive
For instances like Rhode Island (5) and Florida (4), the map groups them in the same range, even though Florida is far larger than Rhode Island. I wonder how it would change the map to have the scales be determined by density, like waterfalls/km^2.
You’re correct, by a large margin. WV has 275 according to Wikipedia. Now I’m wondering what qualifier was used, was it drop height, discharge, accessible vs inaccessible…
Semi-related: Only small amounts of copper are typically stored in the human body, and the average adult has a total body content of 50–120 mg copper. Most copper is excreted in bile, and a small amount is excreted in urine.
Water: 35 liters, Carbon: 20 kg, Ammonia: 4 liters, Lime:1.5 kg, Phosphrus: 800 g, salt: 250g, saltpeter:100g, Sulfer: 80g, Fluorine: 7.5 g, iron: 5.6 g, Silicon: 3g, and 15 other elements in small quantities… thats the total chemical makeup of the average adult body. Modern science knows all of this, but there has never been a single example of succesful human trasmutation.
