    From what I’ve seen of Texas during my visits I have to ask: WTF kind of alternatives are there? Houston is 80% ramps and intersections, and walking practically anywhere is impossible due to the roads effectively dividing up the city.

    No matter where you’re going in Houston, you’re going to need a car. It’s among the cities least suitable for moving around without a car I’ve ever been to.

      Texas simply put is built for cars. Some new areas are more walkable and bikeable but you are right, it’s not convenient or safe to bike or walk a lot. And cars are still assholes to bikers.

      Texas, and America, need a culture change of we want to fix transit.
