      I can’t imagine riding in a cable car lane. I’d be terrified of my tires getting stuck in the recessed tracks. Plus there are plenty of videos of cable cars mowing down drivers who were in their lane, with absolutely zero fucks given. At least the drivers have a cage.

        It was like that in DC when they introduced the H Street streetcar. All those issues and more. There are ways to make the tracks safer for skinny tires, but they either couldn’t find the money or just weren’t listening. This was a while back, and I don’t live there anymore, so I’m not sure if anything was improved.
