The Three E's Of Passing The Buck
Ever notice how transportation engineers are basically the Spider-Man meme personified? They're too busy pointing fingers at enforcement and education while 4 million bodies pile up from car crashes. That fine print disclaimer is peak bureaucratic poetry: "Safety is not our job." Translation: We design the roads, but if you die on them, that's a you problem. Nothing says American infrastructure quite like prioritizing "vehicle level of service" over, you know, human survival. Next time someone complains about a dangerous intersection, just remember—those engineers are technically correct, the best kind of correct!

The Ultimate Eco-Friendly Commute Solution
The graph shows transport efficiency (calories per gram per kilometer) vs body weight for various creatures and vehicles. And then there's that genius comment: "Imagine how efficient a salmon on a bicycle would be." Looking at the data points, a cyclist is already super efficient at ~0.15 cal/g/km, while salmon sit at ~0.45 cal/g/km. Combining their powers would create the ultimate transportation revolution! Just picture a salmon pedaling away with its tail, water splashing everywhere. The ultimate eco-friendly commute solution nobody asked for but everyone secretly needs. Finally, a practical use for all those upstream swimming muscles! NASA engineers are probably kicking themselves for missing this obvious breakthrough in biomechanical efficiency.

Not The Road's Fault
Transportation engineers watching millions of crashes like: "Have you tried turning your driving off and on again?" 🔥 The classic IT support response applied to road safety! Engineers design the systems, but then blame the "wetware" (that's YOU, human drivers) when statistics go boom. It's like blaming the keyboard for typos! The dark humor here is how engineers distance themselves from design flaws by labeling catastrophic statistics as simple "user error" - as if 14 million crashes are just people not reading the road manual properly. Next they'll suggest roads would be perfectly safe if humans didn't exist!

The Real Future No One Is Talking About
Everyone's lining up for battery electric vehicles while electromagnetic motion transport sits there like the unpopular kid at prom. This is basically every revolutionary technology that's too ahead of its time. Remember when Nikola Tesla wanted to give us wireless electricity and the world was like "nah, we good with these wires everywhere"? Same energy. The real technological leap forward is always the one getting ignored while we obsess over incremental improvements. Maybe in 50 years we'll all be zooming around on electromagnetic transport wondering why we spent so long arguing about battery range and charging stations.
