  • Newspapers/websites just want to make money and people tend to read articles that frighten them and/or make them angry. Be careful with what you read/watch and verify with actual statistics.

    I put myself on a news-diet a few months back and it massively improved my life. Instead of worrying about the world burning and feeling unable to do anything about it, I have much more energy to actually do things I like and/or find important and am also much more able to invest in deep relationships with friends. I cannot recommend it enough.

    Important news will get to you anyway, there is no need to check news outlets every 5 minutes.











  • Yeah so this wasn’t easy for the Netherlands either. They just started trying earlier, so they had more time to fail and try again. This would maybe not fly anymore in a newly designed street in the NLs now, but it sure as heck looks a lot like some older roads in the Hague that are still waiting on their update to the new guidelines.

    So well done guys, you are def. going in the right direction with this 🙏.

    The only thing you could maybe argue is why they are not just asking for a bit of help from a Dutch road designer during the design process. I mean, the knowledge is all there already, why not use it? 😉
