This, but for truckers and bikers. It never seems to occur to the truckers that bikers probably also own a car.
They’re right, but it’s beside the point.
I wish nothing but the worst for every weak ass bitch that uses teleportation as a form of transportation. I hope it fucks up and you aresolize your dumb asses and coat the earth in pink slime so everyone hates you as much as I do.
The way I’ve heard it, you could walk on water and someone will say look at them, they don’t know how to swim.
humans could achieve cheap, safe, easy teleportation and I’ll bet you a steak dinner that a substantial number of assholes would still argue we need roads so they can vroom vroom around in their jacked up pavement princess dick-head haulers.
Well a huge amount of people see the car as a chore, a way to get from A to B. If they all stopped using the car streets so that they are 95% more empty, the car enthusiasts would remain on empty streets. I think that would make them safer, you would need less lanes. It would be more fun and safe to drive on empty streets and only with other driving enthusiasts who are paying more attention than someone getting from A to B. (I write this as someone who lives in a region without racetracks.)

fuck them and their enthusiasms it’s destroying the ecosystem.
they can find a new fucking hobby that doesn’t VRRRRRROOOOOM VRRRROOOOOM.
“FuckCarsCircleJerk”
fuck yeah
Larry Niven’s teleport pads would be cool. Except for the human tendency to stand at a doorway…keep moving!
I can assure you: If I had the ability to teleport I could afford several cars because everyone would be wanting to buy my teleportation tech.
Even if there isn’t tech to buy I’d immediately make infinite money off the instant private delivery of goods. You would have every drug dealer and government in the world blowing up your phone to get your services.
Or just scam people with fake teleportation tech
Or just vacation packages. I’ll teleport your family to <insert expensive flight destination of choice> for the price of just 1 ticket, or half that, etc. My siblings and cousins wanted to do a family trip with ticket prices between 1-2k usd per person.
