How'd they get rid of the fucking cabbies? They were most of the car traffic round Bank from what I remember.
They used to do rolling honking protests round the whole town about every least little thing, especially anything questioning their god given rights to pump half-combusted diesel down everyone else's throats.
After that other video of the car hitting the electrical pole, I was really worried as I started watching this one.
Meanwhile, in my own city...
i live here, too. generic city, usa. : D
car infra just makes everything look the same, heh.
I'm pretty sure that's Canada. Speed limit sign is a tell.
haha you'll see me right there a lot of the time
What's this?
London is a city and the capital of the United Kingdom. :-p
The streets at the crossing are probably closed for cars and trucks.
This is the situation (at that place) regularly, all the time? This is not some kind of special event?
It's the City of London (a small area within London), near the Bank Station. That area is designated as Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ). Cars other than the service kind (cabs, buses, lorries) would need to pay a high charge to go in. So effective no cars go in there usually.
